Gotta Getaway

Before winter set in we thought we would take a long weekend and drive down to Branson. On the way we stopped at Osceola Cheese (what's a trip to Branson without stopping there anyway?) and well, ate some cheese. Here's Elkin posing with the Osceola Cheese mouse.



Probably the one thing that we all like to do together the most is hike. It was pretty muddy that weekend but we did get one in. We had a tough time keeping up with Elkin - he's a fast little runner! This was the view of him most the time we were hiking.



It was very pretty with all the leaves changing colors. We got Elkin to pose for just a second before he finished his run.



Tim & Elkin rode a go cart which Elkin was very excited about - at first anyway. After a few laps he got overwhelmed and a little scared of the whole thing.



We also played some miniature golf. Elkin was quite the cheat!



We spent our last day at Silver Dollar City. We all had such a good time. Once Elkin gets older I think I'm going to have someone to ride roller coasters with! Elkin's favorite ride was the train - of course :)
