Wordless Wednesday: Tennessee Morning skies

in , , , , , , , , , by Linda A Kinsman, Wednesday, October 07, 2015
I drive my girls down our long gravel drive each school morning to meet their buses around 6:12 am. Lately the morning sky has been so beautiful! We can see the moon, Venus, Jupiter and several stars. Country living has its perks.

A couple of weeks ago, I had the privilege of sharing my review of the book Alone Yet Not Alone. My daughter and I loved the book and were excited about the movie release to follow. 


About Alone Yet Not Alone:


"Alone Yet Not Alone" is an amazing historic story about faith and family, based in the fall of year 1755 during the French and Indian war and is recommended for children ages 8 and older. It's a book that they are guaranteed to love, you will also enjoy the story just much as your kids, I promise you that.

It's that time of year again in middle Tennessee! The kids have been back in school about a month now, we've all got our normal routines established and the leaves are just starting to fall.

So what time is it?

Tennessee State Fair time!  This has been a fun family event for us for years now and it just gets better every year!

There are some big things going on this year including the Tennessee Two-Crust Apple Pie Contest, Hendrick's Racing Pigs, tons of livestock events, live music daily, and of course the rides and games! This is the big draw for my girls!
