Back Porch

I have had these pictures on my computer for a while meaning to upload them - I will eventually get around to taking pictures of all the rooms in our house!! For now here is our back porch.

I just love this room - we spend a ton of time out here. From morning quiet time to the littles play time to evening movie dates (on our laptop) with Paul, this room is our go to room. It overlooks our backyard and the neighboring horse farm which is pretty cool!

This is the right side of the room - the window you see above the couch looks into the kitchen.


The door leads into the living room.

There's a doorbell on the back door and Judah loves to ring it and watch me run to the front door to see who it is! In fact lately he has started ringing the door bell at the back door and saying "Who is it?" and will run to the front door.

I set up a little table for the boys back here.

Our Trip

Our 4th anniversary was celebrated in Nashville, TN. Wesley came along, since he can't live long without me!
Our goal is to celebrate our anniversary in a different State each year, and so far we're doing great.
Nashville was fun. We didn't see any shows, but we did a lot of walking and looking and had a pretty relaxed time together.

We stayed at the Preston Hotel. Our room overlooked the airport and we had some impressive views of planes landing. It wasn't overly romantic as every time a plane rumbled by I would think of our two year old and how much he'd of loved seeing the planes so close up.
The hotel was very modern, and not quite our taste. No complaints about the hotel itself. It just wasn't us.

We were told that the Pancake Pantry was a must eat at place, and so we stopped by. The line up was out the door! The food was delicious and worth the stop. I included the street signs in the picture in case you visit the area and want to stop by!



On our way home we decided to stop at the Jack Daniel's Distillery. It was quite a ways off the highway, but SO worth it. Even if you don't drink, it's a fascinating tour! The tour is free and lasts an hour. It's a walking tour, so if you go, wear comfy shoes!

These fermenting holding things were three stories high! There were tons of them in the building.

All bottled up and on display.

There were rows and rows and rows of barreled whiskey.
