Ellis Family Reunion Trip ~ Branson Missouri


Grandpa & Grandma Ellis treated us to a few days in Branson Missouri this past week with the whole Ellis clan. 
We had lots of adventures, therefore lots of photos! :o)

Photo shoot in the lobby of our hotel ~ Chateau on the Lake 




My posts have been getting really long so I added a "read more" button at the bottom of my lengthy posts. 
Click that to see the whole post. 


Luke thought Cousin Sydney was awesome and stuck pretty close to her side.

Dinner at Jon & Juli's Lake House ~ Ethan got to meet a lot of the Ellis family for the first time.

Luke and Sydney's shadow at Silver Dollar City.

Luke was just tall enough (36 inches exactly) to be able to ride on the teapots, dumbo and the flying pirate ships. He thought the teapot ride was pretty cool.



Marvel Cave ~ We took the boys on the 700 step tour of the cave. 
(During nap-time, which was the scary part, there's no way out for a screaming kid.)
Greg carried Luke the whole way which proved to be quite difficult when the cave got very narrow and Greg had to walk bent over for quite a ways. Both boys were very quite.






Swim Time ~ Ethan didn't mind the water this time and Luke had a blast of course.



Another group photo before we boarded the dinner cruise ~ The Branson Belle








We got the chance to go zip-lining. It's not nearly as scary as I thought it would be.


Mom got a shirt that said, "This Grandma can fly!" :o)

We sure enjoyed our trip. Thank you Grandpa & Grandma!
