4th Annual OMY Labor Day Family Vacation

That title is a mouthful, huh?  Well, if you are wondering what "OMY" is, it is the initials of our last names. My mom and Geno are the "O", we are the "M" and my sister and her family are the "Y". This past weekend we had a ton of fun at Table Rock Lake. If you're not familiar with it, it is a beautiful lake in southern Missouri very close to Branson and Springfield. I think this was the fourth year we've done our family lake trip.  In the past we've gone to Grand Lake and Lake Eufalla in Oklahoma.  We rented a "cabin", but it was huge and fully loaded. 4 bedrooms, 3 bath complete with horseshoe pits, pool table, ping pong table, air hockey, fire pit etc! They even had a pack-n-play, high chair and safety gates so we didn't have to worry about that stuff!

Nana brought everyone some goodies!



a good game of Sorry!

 On Saturday we went to the beach and swam and played.

That night we all grilled dinner and sat by the fire pit and ate smores!  On Sunday, we went into Branson for some fun. We started off with a very competitive game of putt-putt golf. Even Caiden got to play. (My camera was dead, so hopefully my sister got a few). Then we went to get our air-brushed family t-shirts. Cheesy, I know... but I like being a dork sometimes!

The O's and Y's stayed in Branson for a bit while we took Caiden back to put him to bed and they rode go-carts. When they got back we played some games. You should check out a really fun game called "Funglish"

On Monday morning, when Caiden woke up before everyone else, we went down to the water and Eric was showing him how to throw rocks. He loved it, and wanted to walk right in.

It was a wonderful vacation with beautiful weather! We couldn't have asked for a better family trip!
