CeCe and PePaw's Visit!

Two weeks ago my mom so graciously came to stay with our boys so Sam and I could attend a wonderful pastors and wives conference with our church staff.  We had a blast, and it was a much needed getaway from everyday life.  The boys and CeCe also had a great time!  At the end of the week, my dad flew out to spend the weekend with us too.  It was there first visit since our move to our new house, so we were extra excited to have them come stay.  Even though the entire weekend was rainy, we still had a blast!  And Drew added to his very small vocabulary the word "Pepaw" :)  That puts it up to three words now! haha   

What do you do in Branson when it's raining??? Go to the Butterfly Palace, of course!

I love this face of Drew's and have equal feelings for the "OOH" that accompanies it!  I mean, who wouldn't point at that ugly thing?!?


PePaw and Drew were kinda inseperable (and Dad paid for it with a hurt back once it was all said and done!)

If you know my mom, this picture is one that provides much comfort and comic relief.  It's just so "her"...the her that we have all loved and cherished for years :) 

Reckon Mac was having fun?

Dad was keeping Drew safe from slamming into mirrors in the maze

Now how about that face! I suppose I was trying to escape from a butterfly about to fly in my face!

We had lots of delicious food...this was our garbage can lid feast at "Famous Dave's"

Mac was treated to picking out whatever he wanted at the candy store.  The candy store that we used to just go in to see the train running across the top of the store..."used to" because now that he knows what the candy is like, I'm thinking we'll never again enter without him wanting some :)  PePaw spoils us all rotten!

Sign of the times...both boys passing time while waiting to eat at "Lambert's" by playing on cell phones

Family pic after the very best meal Branson has to offer at the Keeter Center at the College of the Ozarks.  Hands down the best!  (and everyone should go at least once, despite the price)

We also passed time in the rain at Bass Pro
