Family Mission trip!

This past weekend we had the privilege to go as a family on a mission trip to Tracy city, Tennessee to Mountain T.O.P. We weren't sure what we were in for with the kids and mission but we were excited to share a weekend of service with our kids.
We were given the project to work on a 100 year old house. We were to paint the exterior of the house but it was raining. Luckily we were able to spend the day with the owner of the house socializing and doing odd jobs around her house. She has
4 dogs and 2 cats that love kids
so the kids were in heaven.






Family style eating!





Huckleberry won James heart! Not sure James stopped talking e entire 6 hours we were there. Jennifer was very patient and loved listening to James!


Henry made himself comfortable and took a nap. Poor guy had a oozing ear:( That was the only medicine I didn't take to the mountains. Go figure!!


Yes the dog looks frightened but he was very content in her arms.


My hubby drilling some board above the shower. This picture is proof that he can do home improvement!


The kids behaved well and slept well. We had a blast playing cards and having fellowship. We can't wait to go back again. I have been wanting our kids to better understand the meaning of service to others and this weekend was a great start!
