Happy in the Hills

We made it to the hills of Kentucky and kept busy everyday.  First of all we celebrated my mom's 65th birthday.  Happy Birthday Mom!  Then we opened gifts for Christmas and Hannah got a great surprise!  My mom stitched a quilt for Hannah and it was beautiful! 
Faith went rabbit hunting with Uncle Billy and had an exciting time!  I went along to take pictures and I'm glad I did.  Faith did not come away empty-handed.  Billy's rabbit dogs ran a rabbit to her and she shot it in the head.  Yay Faith!
Sunday we drove to Jeffersonville to deliver a truckload of candy for VGR from the "candy man."  Then we were blessed to go to church at the Tabernacle.  They were dedicating new Sunday School rooms that had just been added on to the tabernacle.  After church we went over to my brother's house and had lunch and a great time of fellowshipping.  Then it was back to Kentucky for the night. 
Before we left Monday morning, we went to see my Grandma.  She is so sweet!  She is one of the last of the real "hill" people.  She has a hand water pump in her kitchen sink and a wood stove for heat and cooking.  When we got there, she had been reading the Bible. 
Nathan was so generous to drive us in his new truck.  It was much nicer than all of us squeezing in our car for the long drive.  Thanks Nathan!
Thanks for praying for us!  Enjoy the pictures!

 This used to be the General Store that my mom went to as a young girl.  Now its a craft store.

 See the new sunday school rooms on the left?

 What's going on here!?

 Headin' over to Grandma's house.

 This old building used to be a store.  When I was little, we used to ride our bikes up the road to it and get pop to drink.  (ya'll know what pop is?) ;0)

 Here's Grandma!  She was happy to see us!

 Time to do the dishes girls!  Don't forget to heat your water on the stove first!

Did I mention that I was the "back seat" driver?  A very stressful position.
