Silver Dollar City

The weekend before last we went to Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO. It was going to be the last opportunity for us of the season to use our season tickets, and also the last decent day (weather wise) to spend the day there. It wasn't quite as warm as they had predicted, but it wasn't too terribly bad.

Here we are in front of the BIG Christmas tree! Dalton was just so awed by this tree!!

If you know Dalton, you know that he LOVES snowmen! They had them all over the park and of course we had to pose with just about every one of them!

Dalton went on his very first BIG BOY ride this time! Here's Dalton and Daddy, going into Fire in the Hole.



Went Dalton came out, he said that it was "so NOT cool" because it was so dark!
Then they rode on this thing...I think it was called High and Low? Basically you pull yourselves up to the top, then do a slow free fall back down.
And while Daddy and Dalton rode around (Dalton ALWAYS chooses Chris to ride with him...such favoritism!) Jackson and I just hung out and people watched!!
Here we were getting ready to go on the train. We always ride the train when we go, Dalton loves it.

Waiting in the train depot...


About half way through the train ride, they usually stop and do this little "hold up" skit, but for Christmas, they were telling the story of Jesus' birth. Dalton was enthralled.

A nice lady in front of us took this picture. It kind of cracks me up. Dalton looks all dopey, and Jackson is looking to the side like he doesn't like what's about to go down. HA!

It sure was beautiful! They had hundreds of thousands of lights strung, it was just gorgeous. I've never been to SDC around holiday time, and I highly recommend that you go! You will not be disappointed!!
