Branson - Celebration City

We had quite the time at Celebration City! This is the entrance...they had it decorated so nicely for fall! There were displays like this through the whole place. It is really a nice place to go...they have it set up like you are walking through the streets of yesterday. The roads are all paved like what you see here.
The kids really enjoyed driving these motorized boats around.
They shrunk!! Dont they look funny in this over sized rocking chair?!
We went to the Veggie Tales Silly Sing Along show, which is also inside Celebration City. It only lasts about 20-30 minutes but it is really perfect. You sing along with a few of the favorite songs, then they bring out the bubble machine for Larry's hairbrush song, then at the end Bob and Larry come out and surprise all the kids!!! Even though the boys are 7 they still think this is the REAL Bob and Larry!! Too funny!
The Giant Monkey!!
There were so many fun things like this in there...I took SO many pictures while we were there. I couldnt possibly put them all on here!
The kids did some of the rides while we were there. This one is of Mason and Grandpa. They went on this twice and Mason loved it! It is one of those water rides that gets you wet!
I think Brody and Taylor went on two different rides...this one and a swing one that didnt go too fast. They are more into the kiddie ones that are not at all intimidating!! They had a good time on the ones they went on.
This one is of Eric and Mason. This ride at first didnt look like it was going to be too bad, but once it started it was FAST and HIGH!! Good thing Mason is into that kind of thing!! They ended up going on this twice in a row. I couldnt believe how far up in the air they got and how fast it went...it was really fun to watch them~~
Daddy bought the kids all some of those light up toys when it got to be evening. The boys got these cool swords that light up and make noises!
The night show that they put on is just about the coolest thing we have seen! It was SO worth the price of admission!! They do about a 30 minute fireworks/laser light show every evening. There is a huge rock wall that sits above a pond and they project video onto the rock while they play music/shoot fireworks/laser lights/fire balls...it is really amazing!! The theme for this one was "Celebrating America"
Here is Taylor in her light up head band and 3D type glasses...too cute!!
If you are ever in Branson make sure you go to Celebration City!!

Looks like a blast. Mikayla remembers Silver Dollar City and tells her brothers about it sometimes - she can't wait til we can go as a family on furlough.
