Fall in Tennessee

Here are a few pictures from several weeks ago when the leaves were just beginning to change colors.

The farmer who rents some of our fields planted cotton this year.  We loved seeing all the beautiful, white fields!

Study...study...study...

Please pray for Jonathan and his classmates who are in Pasadena, CA, this week, preparing for the "Baby Bar" exam on Tuesday!

Studying hard!

Fun With Little Ones!!!

We've had a LOT of little ones around here lately!

A couple months ago we started keeping these two sweet little ones one day a week. They are so precious!!

Livy's not afraid of dirty laundry!

Our neighbor's granddaughter, Ella, recently visited them for 3 weeks. We had the pleasure of having her in our home each weekday while they were at work.

Sarah helped Ella make this ABC book.

I love this video of Ella and Livy reading their word flashcards!!

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. -Luke 18:16

Hay Ride!

A few weeks ago our neighbors, the Cullifers, invited us over for a hay ride!

 Friends from church, Mike and Samuel...

 ...and the Gallaghers came along.
