Missin Daddy

The past two weeks have been kind of a bummer around here. When Tommy is out of town, our family is off balance. He has been in Nashville for the past two weeks. We took a quick trip up there to visit him and had a really good time! We went to the Opryland Hotel, the Science Adventure Museum and Opry Mills Mall.

The mall was so cool. We went to two unique restaraunts there. One was the Rainforest Cafe. Inside, you could not see the walls or ceiling. It was completely covered with trees to look like a real forest. There were animatronics along the walls to look like they were in the jungle. Those kinda freaked the girls out if they got too close. :) They also had a thunderstorm every 30 minutes...we had fun! We also went to the Aquarium restaraunt in the same place on a different night. That was awesome! They had a floor to ceiling aquarium and you were surrounded by tons of salt water fish while you were dining. Very relaxing!

The girls also got to go and pet and feed stingrays. All of this was at the same mall!! That was quite an experience. Only Tommy and Faith were brave enough to actually feed them. Me and Alex thought it was just as dangerous to stick our hand in the water and touch them. Of course, we can't go anywhere without some sort of catastrophe. Tommy got bit....see why I didn't think I should have been feeding them?? We really had fun.

Now we have been home all week doing VBS at our church. That has been tons of fun! Today was the evangelistic service and a lot of kids went down to receive Christ....what a blessing! I am teaching a 3rd grade class and this week has gone extremely well. God has truly been using me to speak to these kids.

Tommy comes home Saturday...just in time for Father's Day! We love you Daddy!!!
