"A Night to Remember. A Titanic Musical Tribute"

I can almost hear the violins playing, "Nearer, My God, to Thee". Time stands still when I think about the passengers on that "Unsinkable" ship the night that She faced her opponent in the frigid sea. See, this ship was the most Grand ship of all time when it set sail. I believe it must have been an honor and privilege to ride in such first class accommodations. I often think, What would I have done in that situation? And it reminds me that we have to make each day count. No one could have predicted the fate of Titanic when it set sail April 10, 1912.

As we approach 100 years since Titanic's maiden voyage, it is now my honor and privilege to be a part of a very special Tribute in which we can all take part. I never predicted that I would move to Branson, Mo., start a family, and then have the opportunity to become part of history! When I first realized 2 1/2 years ago that Titanic would turn 100 years old, I couldn't wait to see our Titanic Museum Attraction plans come to fruition. Now, I am pleased to announce that this April 14, 2012 is our Titanic Museum Attraction special Memorial Event, "A Night to Remember. A Titanic Musical Tribute."(3 years in the making!)

The Titanic Museum Attractions in Branson, Mo. and Pigeon Forge, Tn. are the ONLY PLACES in the UNITED STATES where guests can attend a formal tribute. Musical performances, historic ceremonies and appearances by actual descendants of Titanic's passengers and crew will highlight the production honoring the 2,208 people aboard the ship.

The musical tribute will begin at noon (Central) on April 14 at the Titanic Museum Attraction in Branson, Missouri, and at 8:30pm (Eastern) the same day at the Titanic Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Tickets for this unique historical tribute are available now by calling 800-381-7670.

Ticket Holders will receive a limited edition memorial dedicated to the ship's history, including a DVD containing video tributes of the personal stories of selected passengers and crew. Share this milestone with your family. You will never forget it.

Blessings From My Family to Yours,

An "Ice" Storm Hits Branson Next Weekend - February 4 & 5, 2012

     No, I am not a meteorologist nor a physic, but I do know for a fact that 39,000 pounds of ice will arrive in Branson, Mo. in the wee hours of the morning on Saturday, February 4, 2012. Why? The National Ice Carving Association has chosen Branson, Mo. as the site for their 2012 U.S. National Championships. 30 Top Ice Carvers from across the nation will meet in the Titanic Museum Attraction parking lot in Branson, Mo. to chisel, drill, and torch 300 pound blocks of ice into amazing works of art. This years competition will include a new speed carving division which is sure to excite my little ones!! The top prize winner will receive $25,000 and will then go on to compete internationally.

Titanic seems to be a great fit for this National Competition as this isn't the first time Titanic has been honored to host this type of event. My family had a great time last year when Titanic hosted it's 5th annual regional ice carving competition. We couldn't believe what an amazing art form this truly is and we were drawn in emotionally to these carvers and hoped that their individual carvings would withstand the elements and make it to the final judgement.

 
 

My boys are counting the days until this year's event which will be held February 4 & 5 - Super Bowl Weekend. We plan to go early (9am) on February 4th to meet the carvers and find out what they are working on. (By the way, you can park at White Water and be shuttled to Titanic. There won't be much parking at Titanic because of the large quantity of ice and competitors.) Then, we will go inside Titanic to view the new Molly Brown Gallery that just opened. I had the pleasure of viewing this amazing gallery full of artifacts from Margaret Tobin Brown's life last weekend.

On Sunday, February 5th, when all carvings are ready for judgement around 2:00pm-3:00pm, we will come back and route for our favorites. Of course we will make it home in time for our own Super Bowl "party". Go Patriots!!!

Make your plans now to come see this National Ice Carving Competition. Branson is becoming more of a year round destination as each New Year passes. For a complete list of what is currently open in Branson, visit http://www.explorebranson.com/ . I will see you at the Titanic Museum Attraction next weekend.

Have an Ice Day at the Titanic Museum Attraction

 I am very excited to say that our 2nd Annual Titanic Pigeon Forge Ice Carving Competition is coming up in January 2012. It will be held on Saturday, January 14 at our Titanic Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge, Tn. For more information, visit our website. The event is free!!!  Contest Information is below.

I have been attending these Ice Carving Competitions at our Branson, Mo. location for several years with my family. We are always amazed that a sculptor can chisel down a 250 pound block of ice into a spectacular work of art. My boys are especially entertained by this event. It is nice to be able to take them somewhere (in January when cabin fever hits hard at our house) that THEY enjoy.

I am running a facebook contest for this event in Pigeon Forge. It begins on December 3, 2011 on our Titanic Museum Attraction facebook page. The winner will receive a January 14, 2012 FAMILY PASS to our Titanic Museum Attraction in Pigeon Forge, Tn. and a one-night stay at the Wilderness at the Smokies, Smoky Mountain Waterpark Resort. I can't think of a better way to fix cabin fever in mid-January than to come experience this event.

Here are some sculptures that were created last year:

I hope to see you at the Titanic in Pigeon Forge, Tn.  this year as we kick off 2012 with our Year Long Tribute to Titanic as She Turns 100 years old!

Fall in the Ozarks - Titanic Signature Events

Fall is here. The air is crisp, the leaves are beginning to change colors, and our family is gearing up for a busy season of spending time with family, enjoying the outdoors, and you guessed it.....SOCCER. As usual, we have so much on the agenda. I want to share with you our fall line up in hopes that you might be able to join us in some of these fantastic events that have become part of our family's fall traditions!


Fall wouldn't be fall without our yearly trip to the Titanic Museum Attraction parking lot for the Annual Chainsaw Woodcarving event. This year, on October 7, 8, and 9 will be the 4th annual and I can't wait to see these skilled artists perform. Be sure to be there at 2pm on each of these days. Why? Because this is when the artists auction off their sculptures to the crowd. You can get some incredible deals!

The following weekend, on October 15 is my tasty charity favorite. It is Titanic's 2nd Annual Firehouse Chili Cookoff. Last year, I learned some really interesting secrets about great chili. I will let you learn for yourself. Who knew that all of our local firefighters were such great cooks??? This year, we have a special Guest Judge from Harrison, Ar. His name is Michael Ardolino and he will donate $100 to St. Judes. The winners of the contest will also donate money to their favorite charity of choice. It is a delicious time for our family with lots of kid friendly activites!

If you are a pet lover, you have surely heard of TAME magazine! They have their annual Pets and Pumpkins event on Oct 22 this year in Springfield, Mo. Pets from across the Ozarks will compete for best dressed in this Costume Party event. Not to mention, last year there were bouncy slides, krispy creme doughnuts, marshmallow roasting, video gaming, arcade like games, and tons of other stuff for kids. Titanic's 1st Class Maid Jaynee will attend with a special guest of the four-legged kind. My kids always have a great time at this event! Here are a few pictures from last year:

And of coarse, Fall wouldn't be Fall without Soccer. My husband is coaching both teams this year, U6 and U10. He is so great with the kids, very competitive, but the kids love it and are learning! I am so thankful to the Titanic Museum Attraction for all that they do to support our community. I will leave you with a few soccer pictures....Happy Fall!! See YOU in OCTOBER!
