We enjoyed our road trip, even though it was rainy and chilly, while in Branson, Missouri.
My first purchase ,of the trip, was the green jacket I’m wearing in the photo (gotta love Eddie Bauer Outlet). The fleece vest and denim jacket, I brought along, was not quite enough to keep the chilliness away!
I have lots of photos to share. These mosaics are a preview. I’ll post more during this week.
Visiting Missus Claus was the perfect way to spend the last evening of our stay.
Stop by Mary’s Little Red House, for mosaics from around blog land, each Monday.
Thanksgiving to Christmas

Looks like a wonderful trip. I had an opportunity to go to Branson last summer with a favorite aunt and cousin but did not get to go. I'll be anxious to see your photos to see what I missed. :) Maybe I'll plan a trip for the future.

Gorgeous photos! Can't wait to see more. I fell in love with Branson over thirty years ago when it was a sleepy little town with some wonderful shops - the 'old' Branson. I always wanted to go back. I know I would love it if I could go and spend time there. It would be fun to see if they kept a couple of the quaint, little shops. Don't remember what they were called but I remember what they had. It would be fun to see if someone has kept the spirit of those places. I loved seeing your photos of the Branson of today and look forward to more. ~Adrienne~
Oh how I wish I had your talent for photography! Beautiful photos.
Beautiful mosaics, Pat! It looks like you had a wonderful time! Happy week!...Debbie
I love visiting Branson and it's been far too long since I've been there. Something to consider for next summer .... Enjoy this week and have a wonderful Thanksgiving. We all have much to be thankful for.
Love the Jim Shore Xmas stuff! Oh, what a delight it will be to see your house for Christmas again!

I love your Santa and sleigh. I have never been to Branson but it is on my list of places to visit. It looks like you had a great time!
Happy Thanksgiving to you!
Oh my, lovely shots, love the sled in one of the little pictures! I just posted pics of my Fall mantel place, but Christmas decorating is also on my mind. You always have some great travel pics, since I don't go anyway, I enjoy "traveling" with you.
Pat, I'm so glad you had such a good trip. Great pics of you and J. Love the new jacket, too!
And that Santa with his sleigh and little buddies is very cute.

Your photos are gorgeous! That last photo is amazing. Is it real?
I haven't been to Branson in years, so I'm looking forward to more pictures. Love the Jim Shore Santa & Sleigh. I have a couple of Jim Shore Santas, but, alas, no sleigh. Happy Thanksgiving week. Sally
