Alyssa told me she was "very clever" with butterflies as we were letting them go!

Ella loved her teddy bear she got for her birthday.

We met our friends Micah and JoEllen and their 4 girls in Crossville, TN this past weekend. You might ask what is in Crossville TN. Well, the Food City and the local winery (feel free to bypass this place--YUCK) is as far as we got! It was really great to catch up with old friends and get to know their kids. There were 7 kids and Alyssa was the oldest and they were all GREAT! All of us had a great time and can't wait to see them again! Below are some pictures of the kids. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of their youngest, Margaret, but take my word for it--she is one cute little lady!
