Table Rock Lake at sunset. There isn't a more beautiful sight in all of Missouri.
My Mom compiled a photo book of our recent trip to Branson and Table Rock Lake, so I only want to upload each family member's best moments on this blog. Our vacation was just about as perfect as it could be. There are always a few moments on vacation when the patience wears thin, but this vacation had it all: rest and relaxation, shopping, movies, a Branson show, and of course hours each day on our favorite Missouri lake.
LOGAN'S BEST MOMENTS
Cuddle time with his Mama
Pyramids on the tube
Learning volleyball skills
Giving us his signature grin
Playing with Grandpa
Conquering his fears by giving us the "thumbs up" on the tube
Driving the wave runner like a wild man

LINDSEY'S BEST MOMENTS
Cliff jumping like a daredevil
Learning to waterski while smiling ear to ear
Spreading sunshine and happiness
Showing us her newly acquired serving skills
Jumping waves until my sunglasses were lost forever
BRYNLIE'S BEST MOMENTS
Being the leading scorer in the family volleyball game
Doing toe-touches off the cliffs
Dancing. Always dancing.
Always.
Stubbornly persevering until she could water ski like a champion.
Posing for the camera in her teal green shades
Swimming in the condo pool after spending the day swimming in the lake
BREVAN'S BEST MOMENTS
Wake boarding behind the boat
Pencil jumping off the cliffs
Practicing his driving skills on the water
Taking care of his younger siblings
Begging to be thrown off the blue tube
Showing his sisters how to pop out of the water on skis and enjoy the ride
MY BEST MOMENTS
Water skiing until the wake jumping knocked me on my butt
Thoroughly enjoying time with my favorite people
Volleying back and forth with my hubby
Holding on for dear life
RYAN'S BEST MOMENTS
Getting completely horizontal while cliff diving
Watching his family eat juicy burgers in front of him while he wished his taste buds would repair themselves more quickly. He has now lost 30 pounds in a month because he mostly drinks health shakes.
Catching some air on the wave board while the sun set
MOM AND DAD'S BEST MOMENTS
Learning that a life on the lake is not too shabby
Being whipped back and forth on the tube
Victorious!
Making 60's look like 40's
Cruising the lake
I hope Dad put sunscreen on that bald head!
Doing their aerobic exercises in the lake water
Celebrating Dad's 69th birthday by blowing out candles on his gluten-free frozen custard
Para-sailing - a once in a lifetime opportunity where they could feel like kids again.
Getting steamy!
Giggling when the instructor dipped them in the water before they shot back up in the sky
Attending an Abba tribute where Dad was welcomed on stage to dance. His health has declined to the point that his doctor just ordered him a walker, but this man can still dance!
Thank you, Mom and Dad, for spending 10 wonderful days with my family! We made memories that will last a lifetime.
