Fall break is a favorite in our home because we're all together. This year, we decided to hang out at home. Saturday, we did a few things around the house, such as hand pictures and paint the front door. I've been asking for over a year to have the door painted and Jake finally did it. Sunday after church, we ride up to Paris, TN to visit Sandra. We were fortunate that mom was also there. Mom is really good about trying to see us when she can and I love that about her. She definitely cherishes her grand babies. After having lunch together Monday, we decided to go to the Tennessee Safari Park in Alamo on our way home. It was better than we anticipated. The kids loved it. There were crazy ostriches who would run beside the car trying to get food. A bison fought Jake for the food bucket, the car has lick marks on it, and we have to vacuum the car because the critters spilt food in it but we had several laughs together those few hours. It was an experience I hope we look back on and laugh at for years to come. Our little break is off to a good start with a relaxing week ahead and we will end the week going to mom and dads for a hayride.
