Branson Weekend!

Last weekend we headed to Branson to celebrate our 2nd anniversary! We had planned the trip a couple months ago and had really been looking forward to it. I took off Friday and we left early that morning because we had to make a stop in Wichita first to see my friend Andie get married. It was such a great time to talk and catch up with all my friends. I miss those girls so much! And we got to rent a Toyota Camry for the weekend :)


After the wedding we headed to go ole' Miami, OK to stay the night. It was about half way between Wichita and Branson so a nice place to stop. Saturday morning we woke and made our way to Branson. We had plans to play golf that afternoon with Seth and Melody (Taylor's good friend from high school) and to meet their new baby Judah! What a little cutie :)


We had a fun round and played Branson Creek, our favorite course! It was so nice to spend some time with Seth and Melody since we don't see them very much. After the round, Taylor and I went to check-in at our hotel and get ready for dinner. We went to eat at Devil's Pool which is one of my favorite restaurants in Branson. It is at Big Cedar Lodge so the scenery is so pretty and we got to sit outside and overlook the pool.

Sunday we got up and headed to the outlet mall. I hadn't really planned on shopping, but the Memorial Day sales were just too good! Ha. Taylor even picked up some new shorts and shirts which says a lot. After shopping we headed to Payne Stewart Golf Club where we were playing that afternoon. Taylor's parents were in town so they came over and played a round with us. It was a really fun (and hot!) round. After golf, Taylor and I headed back to the hotel and just ordered a pizza and watched the Thunder game. I had to work on an assignment for school, so we just hung out for most of the night. About 11:00 we decided (ok, I decided) that we needed ice cream! So we headed to Andy's on the Branson strip. It took forever to get there but was so worth it :)

Monday we slept in and headed back to CU around 10am. It was so nice to just be 6 hours from home. Compared to our typically 8 and 9.5 hour trips, we were back before we knew it! We had a really fun time and are already looking forward to our next Branson trip. Hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend!
