Our Roadtrip to Branson


Yesterday we all piled into my husbands truck and went for a scenic drive to Branson, MO (http://welovebranson.blogspot.com/). After playing at the park on such a gorgeous fall day, we started to get hungry. It was David's birthday, so we wanted to take him out to eat. After calling my sweet cousin Shelly to get some information, we decided to visit the 'Ol Hickory Steak and Catfish House in the quaint little town of Crane. (Please click here for directions: http://www.catfishrestaurants.com/catfish_restaurants_012.htm) It was so much fun and the food was delicious!
When we arrived at 4 pm, it was quiet (a perfect time to take four kids to a restaurant)! The atmosphere was casual and relaxed. They even had an old-time wooden checkerboard that the kids took turns playing with until our meal was served. David and I both ordered the fried catfish with cole slaw, sweet potatoes with butter and brown sugar, green beans, and homemade rolls. The kids and adult portions were very generous.

The pies looked delectable, but, unfortunately, we didn't have room for dessert. We were told that they were to have live music later on, but decided to catch the music another time. We will definately remember this wonderful restaurant in the future and be sure to recommend it to our friends and family!
