Silver Dollar City at Christmas

Another Christmas must is a visit to Silver Dollar City.  They have lights on literally nearly every square inch of the park with lots of Christmas shows to see.  The majority of December in Branson this year was freezing weather covered in snow or rain, but we got lucky and were able to go on a rare, mild evening.  We met our friends, the Albritton's, and had a great time.

Waiting to see the Frosty show...yep, front row seats!

The little monster eating snacks.  He says "I a monster.  I scary!"

During one part of the show, they call up the kids to come on the stage to listen and help sing.  Drew was quick and eager to go up.  Mac never worked up the courage.  Drew was so proud of himself. I think he thought he was so big and that it was his time to shine, since we had watched Mac in his performances at church and school.  Drew sang and laughed and laughed.   

Checking to see if we were watching :-)

Overall the show was a bit...um, odd.  But the boys sure thought it was great!

Mac wanted to ride the roller coaster since he so successfully rode them at Disney back in October.  He didn't love this one quite as much as the ones at Disney!  He soon buried his head and kept it there until the ride was over. 

Brave britches Drew getting ready to go on his turn on the coaster.  Since I can't ride such things these days, Sam had to ride twice and switch the boys out.  Drew barely made the height mark to ride and tried really hard to convince himself that it was fun! haha

Mac and Abbie piled in a bug together and left poor little Drew to ride alone...he didn't mind!

Fun night at The City!  Last ride was the bus to the parking lot!
