Branson, here we come!

Our July started out with a road trip to Branson to see Grandma & Grandpa Clark. We left on Saturday (July 3), and returned the following Friday. We packed a lot of things into the week, and I have a ton of pictures. I'm sure I won't get this all into one post, so stay tuned!

By Saturday afternoon, we had made it down to Louisville, Kentucky and took the boys to the Louisville Slugger Factory and Museum. We got to tour the factory, which was pretty cool. Dane seemed to really like the museum, especially since he just finished his first season of t-ball.

Here is the outside of the factory & museum with the large bat!

Abel inside the museum..

Dane inside a large rock that was carved into a glove...

Trying to get a good picture of the two monkeys smiling....but instead, I got this!

Dane about to practice his swing.....

Good picture....but I always seem to catch Abe with his eyes closed!

Abe and Daddy....

Abel was watching the pitching machine.....and was so amazed at how fast the balls went by.

Eric and Dane with Babe Ruth. I LOVE Dane's pose....

Dane requested this picture....

Eric holding Derek Jeter's bat...

Dane with Lou Gehrig's bat...

The boys had a great time there, and it was a nice rest stop after a long day in the car. We then headed south an hour to Cave City. We stayed there for the night, and took the boys to Mammoth Cave the next day.
