Title: Our First Trip as a Family is this weekend!
Post by: RNrunner on May 14, 2012, 06:43:08 AM
We are so excited.  I lived in Berryville, AR as a child, so we visited SDC often.  But, my family recently relocated to central Arkansas from South Alabama.  My children have never visited SDC.  We purchased season passes and our first trip is this weekend.  We are so excited! The kids are going to miss school this Thursday and Friday. (I've never been opposed to letting them miss a little school for a family get-a-way). We are staying 2 nights in Branson with 2 days to enjoy SDC.  I can't wait!  :)

Bet you glad to be back in God's Country. Most all that move away, yearn to come back.

We are here now. Our first day in SDC is over. We had so much fun! The kids enjoyed PowderKeg. I'm amazed at how low the crowds were today. There was never a wait for rides. Tomorrow is our 2nd and last day. I hope to slow down and enjoy some of the shops and other things. Everything is so beautiful. We are officially hooked. Thankfully it was a short 3.5 hour drive and we have season passes. I'm especially excited to visit this Christmas. I'm sure the atmosphere and decorations are special in December.

So glad to hear your family enjoyed their time! Enjoy your day tomorrow, too. And yes, Old Time Christmas is a special time at the park. (though, aren't they all?)
