Branson Vacation

 We decided to actually plan a family vacation this year. All previous vacations except our Disney trip have been used on visiting family. Now that we actually live nearer family, we decided a family vacation was in order. Unfortunately, it's been a rough year and we weren't sure how much of the budget could be dedicated to it.

But Hubby had several trips and we earmarked the money he made from it for a quick weekend trip to Branson. With his hotel points, we got ourselves a nice hotel to stay in. Then he noticed the Groupons that were available.

And that kind of set our itinerary. We got one for a pretty cool acrobat show, one for all day mini-golf (Rugrat's first time), and some other little goodies.

Shortly after we got there, he noticed a special deal on the Sights and Sounds Theater (we had raved about it after going during a girl's weekend). It had the show I had been wanting to check out too so we grabbed some tickets for that night.

Thanks to his watchful eye and travel money and hotel points, we were able to go without breaking the bank. And we got to try a few things that we otherwise might not have. That's one of the reasons I love him!
