Misc pictures from our trip! (LOTS of pics!! :-D)

The ferry we used to cross over into Ohio,
This was taken on the way back, as you can see we were in the front!
It was kinda freaky! :-)

****Lincoln's Childhood home****
This was the inside of a cabin which was a lot like the one Abraham Lincoln lived in as a boy. And the cabin was near the original location where Abe Lincoln actually lived.
The fireplace,
Outside the cabin,

The garden,

Sunflowers! Look at how tall they are!

A group shot outside the cabin.

Ok, believe it or not, I was standing in a hole in this picture, that's the only reason I look so short! I'm really not that short in real life! Really!! :-D

This statue was in a small town we went though on the

way to Lincoln's birthplace

I know you can't see this very well, but it's the Gettysburg Address

***Museum about Lincoln***

The little boys playing with 'Lincoln' Logs, get it?!

Statues of the Lincoln Family

Isn't this neat looking?

A close-up of it, the whole thing was made out of pennies!

Isn't that cool?!

A replica of Lincoln's birthplace,

or at least I think that's what this is...

See Elijah standing at the bottom of that flag pole?

Pretty tall, isn't it?!

We thought this was neat to see... a horse and buggy parked in front of a tractor supplies place! lol!!

This was at the Wal-Mart parking lot

A creek we had to drive though to get to a friends house... it's really not as deep as it looks.

TN vacation - Day 5 - May 4th

Monday found us on the road to an impromptu visit to the town we lived in from 1997-1999.
This is our sweet little home on Grove Blvd - the first home we owned.
We also went to the park where us children loved to play at.
We always called it 'the Eiffel Tower park', I don't remember its proper name.
-----

After we got back from Paris, we went to a friend's house to visit. Mama and Miss Lisa grew up together, and have been good friends for a long time!

Miss Lisa has three children, Andrew (he is Caleb's age), Shelby (Sam's age), and Bradleigh Grace (who is between Isaac and Joseph).
When we lived in Mississippi Miss Lisa would drop her children off at our house while she went on mission trips.... we would all have so much fun playing together! :-) I do remember Caleb, Andrew, and Sam were always trying to figure out new ways to scare Shelby and me.... boys.... ;-)

And here we all are!
It was so nice to get to see them again after three years!

TN vacation - Day 4 - May 3rd

Ya like his hair?! Well, at least he has some...

even if it is rainbow colored! :-)

Joseph and the collie puppies,
We went out to see Grannie's horses while we were there, it started raining soon after we got to where the horses were, so I didn't get many pictures.
Isn't she pretty?! Her name is Buttercup (I think)
Sweet little Nehemiah....
