Sometimes I think there is so much chaos and excitement leading up to Christmas that it is hard not to feel a little let down after they are over. You spend so much time looking forward to the festivities- and then they are all over so quickly and everyone is back to their day to day lives and regular schedules. And it can leave you feeling a little down. At least it does for me.
If you are a regular reader then you know I was sick for most of the Christmas vacation. We spent a week at my parents house and Rich and I had planned to go out on a little date night while my parents watched Hailey. Well, I was too sick to want to do that. Once I started to feel better- Rich got sick with a stomach bug… and once he started to feel better- I had the stomach bug. So, we never got to go out on our date. Which I had really been looking forward to.
To make myself feel better about not getting our date and the fact that the Christmas season is over, I’ve been thinking about a little getaway with Rich. Even though it’s winter there are still lots of fun things to do- like going and staying at the Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing…
…or the Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel. Both are located in Branson Missouri- and although I’ve never been there it sure looks like there is lots of fun to be had. There is even a Winter Escape Package- so you don’t need to wait until it’s warm to visit. If we did go- I think we would want to see the 2009 Polar Plunge. And by see- I mean see- I would not actually want to do it! There are other fun things to do like the annual ice carving as well as lots of museums and tons of entertainment.
It’s certainly something to think about- it’d be nice to have something fun to look forward to in the coming months rather than sitting around feeling blue. So why not consider a nice little getaway to Branson?
