Tuesday Branson Vacation

 Sarah woke around 4:00 am and tried to start the coffee maker. This is one of those crazy, not easy to figure out how to get that coffee brewing machines. Lee looked up the manufacture and had it programmed to go off at 5:00 but when Sarah tried to just get it to brew early that wiped out what Lee had done. Sarah gave up and left for Crossfit without any coffee. When I got up at 5:00 am of course there was no coffee. Not only is this machine complicated it also is VERY slow at brewing a pot, taking at least 20 minutes. By the time the group that went to cross fit got back there were 2 full pots ready and waiting. From now one we will plan on bringing a coffee maker we know works well. This really is the only complaint, the house really is great for our family. Breakfast was served a few minutes after 8:00 am. All of those kids were hungry for breakfast and were standing in line early.

After breakfast Phil, Anna, David, and Taunya took Braelyn, Taegan, Kensley, Addyson, Abe and Israel to the White Water water park.

Sarah, Nolan, Stephanie, and Lee took Zion, Eden, River, Elisabet and Zeke to the pool. Iris wasn't feeling well, Rhoda took her to prompt care where she was diagnosed with strep and was put on antibiotics. At 1:30 pm The water park group came back to the house for lunch then that group went out on the boat for tubing while the younger group went to the water park.. Below is a video Anna sent back of tubing.

They all arrived back for supper.

We have hungry hoards around here. Rhoda had a scavenger hunt all ready to gn o after supper. They had so much fun finding the clues.

They are all still playing games but both Mark and I are ready for bed. Another great day!
