Cumberland Falls & Eagle Falls & Yahoo Falls

During the Christmas holidays, we enjoyed visiting Cumberland Falls, Eagle Falls, and Yahoo Falls. We packed a picnic and made a day of it!
Yahoo Falls! - the tallest waterfall in Kentucky

Homespun Christmas

My brother and his wife missed their flight on Christmas Eve due to weather and delayed connections, so they arrived late on Christmas day. We celebrated one day after Christmas...but what's in a day? We had soooo much fun sharing in the delights of opening gifts, dining on a huge Christmas feast, and enjoying the mild winter weather outside for a walk in the park.


We also enjoyed playing with my parent's cat, Buddy!
Daniel and Jason had a great time playing basketball, and even got a little competetive with childhood-style board games!
At church, our whole family presented music and Scripture, which highlighted the importance of reading the Bible and spending time one-on-one, daily with God. A lesson we all need to be practicing!
We had a wonderful time visiting our famiy in Kentucky! Mom and Dad cooked and baked with lots of love and we enjoyed eating all their delicious creations! Time spent with family is priceless!

Giving Thanks

We enjoyed a delicious Thanksgiving with Jason's family in Louisiana!
Feeding the ducks is a tradition...whenever we go over to Jason's grandparent's house.
