A month ago, we packed up our home, sold it, and started a drive across the county. We had a great time seeing lots of things and visiting with family, but the rush of the trip was still stressful.
We found an Air B&B in Missouri but it turned out to be not very good. Thankfully Air B&B worked with us and we were able to get a refund for the time we did not stay at the place (we had booked the B&B for a month) and we were able to find another one. (this time in Arkansas) Since then every day off Mark has had we have been looking for land. We needed a way to unwind and relax. We decided that we would take a break on Mark's next days off and go on a mini vacation. With Veronika's birthday coming up we decided to have a little get away to Jellystone Park and celebrate her birthday there.
Mark Twain Jellystone Park
Jumping Pillow
Mini Golf
Arts and Crafts, Popsicles, and Birthday Song!
During craft time at Jellystone they had a wonderful time making cute bees made out of craft sticks. Afterwards they attached magnets to the back so they could stick on the fridge.
We told the staff of Jellystone we were there to celebrate Veronika's birthday during Arts and Craft. So later in the day they surprised her with singing during Popsicle time, and several small gifts such as a stuffed Cindy Bear, bubble wand, sticker book, Jellystone eraser, hair scrunchie, and a birthday pin.
Foam Party
Water balloon Wars! Girls against Boys!
We had a great time at the waterpark!
We went in the wave pool, the lazy river, a swimming pool, and the kiddy slides.
They had bigger slides but you needed to be better at swimming to go on them than our kids are so we stuck to the easier areas which the kids could enjoy.

On the way back we stopped at a fun fudge shop.
We got several different flavors of their fudge; blueberry cheesecake, cookies and cream, chocolate and caramel, and vanilla.
Once we got back to our Air B&B and had dinner, we tried the fudge.
It really is amazing!!
