Mom didn't manage to take pictures of us all dolled up for the weddding, but we had fun. We even managed to make it through a couple hours of the reception before we pooped out! On Sunday, we headed for Branson with Sam, Beth and Ellie. First stop, Silver Dollar City! We went through the Marvel Cave first and boy was it cool! I kept telling everyone how HUGE it was! This was our last look at daylight before we began our descent.
Down we go! 
Down, down, down...
A family photo in the cathedral room.
Look at all those rocks! "I'm going to bring a shovel in here and move some dirt." (The land lords son never has work far from his mind.)
There was even a big waterfall!
I'm a little spelunker!
Rock formations...
Proof that poor, pregnant Beth hiked up the 10 stories to get to the tram at the top.
Ah, back in the tram! Let's eat lunch!
After lunch, we ventured to the flooded mine. I wasn't so sure about it. Even though I had a gun, those convicts made me a little nervous!
I like being out in the daylight better! Daddy and I hopped on a frog ride...first up, buckle up!
Now, we're ready to fly!
Sam, Ellie and I rode on a butterfly next. We had to fit poor Sam in the backseat with a shoe horn!
Meekin pooped out, so he didn't get to ride many rides.
Back to my rides - Sam accompanied me on the mini rollercoaster!
Meekin woke up just in time to check out Ellie sleeping! He was trying to wake her up because he wanted to play!
No, Mom, I really didn't yell at her and try to wake her up!
Notice that water spraying up? It was about to nail Beth! ha!
The park is closing and it's time to go home. Ellie and I hitched a ride to the car! Notice Sam's wet booty! It said on the Lost River sign, 'YOU WILL GET WET!'
Before the stroller was in the car, before the doors were shut, I was out. No nap and playing hard is tough on a boy!

No, Mom, I really didn't yell at her and try to wake her up!Daddy, Beth and Sam on the Lost River ride. I was next to Daddy, but you can't see me. I got soaked and had a really good time on this one!

OOH, and a new shaving kit. This will come in handy so I can keep my goatee shaved.
WHOA! That's pretty high! Even Daddy was a little dizzy after that high flying experience!
After bouncing and dinner comes cake and ice cream!! What a fun day!!
Mom thinks the best part of the day was me saying 'Happy Birthday' right back to everyone who said happy birthday to me!
And a goat!! Gram and Pappy managed to borrow some pretty fun critters! Maxwell here, was very funny!
I was in awe of it all!
Back to the goat, my friend Colson got a big kick out of it. We laughed really hard when Colson was going to take Maxwell for a 'walk' but Maxwell decided to run in circles instead! Where's the video camera when you need it?!
