Odds & Ends from the Road

 Greenfield Village at the Henry Ford Museum
 Noah Webster's home where he wrote his 1828 Dictionary 
to help Christians better understand the Bible. 
Gotta love a baby sister with a bow like that. :)
Trains at the Ford Museum
Can you believe both of our parents spent their formative years driving in VW vans?
Crosby getting her farm fix!
Walking through history in the train section!
Ronald Reagan's Presidential Limousine
Finishing our impromptu unit study on the beauty of old cars.
Back with our own wheels and our favorite (only!) bus driver, who is also one amazing speaker. :) 
Setting up mics, power point, laptops. 
The booth crew gets to set up shop, too. Yes, Carver is still behind that camera!
Christian....sound board...A LOT of options there??!
 "Rebuilding the Wall"
Daddy
 speaking on Nehemiah. 
Heading through Chicago at midnight.
So much fun to see how creative people are with wood!
Never a dull moment. Things look great upside down, too.
The boys got (stole) this idea from our friends
who inspired us with their push ups on the train tracks. 
Loads of fun chopping, skinning, and drying snakes in Michigan.
Watch for the forthcoming belt.
Family walks are the best. Charlie took this one. Middle of the river?!
AGENDA business moments occur in the most unusual places and at the oddest times of day. :)
Wherever we find a spot for a printer and Wifi will do!
Praise the Lord for outgoing orders to all over the US! 
Carver helped repair this sweet man's deck while we were pulling out one morning.
Home Sweet Home!
Snapped a picture of this great billboard as we drove by. 
In a family of 11 with boots, it is very possible you may find
a pile up like this outside your bunk. :)
Working on our Summer & Fall scheduling.
The ongoing relationship between men and meat starts early.
We girls just tag along with them for the fellowship.
So blessed & refreshed by our quick stop with this dear sweet family!
Kate (the mama of 8 darling girls, one happy brother and a baby on the way) is the author of "Delight-Full",
our favorite book about just thoroughly enjoying your baby.
On one hours notice, they whipped up chocolate chip pancakes, sausage and quiche! So much fun.
Daddy took the younger ones on a tour of the Studebaker museum while the gals took a
power walk. We try to get these in every day and love it when we know
everyone else is having a great time somewhere!
We sang and Daddy spoke for the National Day of Prayer in Fremont, MI.
Love our fellows. So handsome.
Teaching Crosby the Art of War afterwards.
Heading home
Celebrating Mother's Day. Our creative Carolina Katherine at work again. 
Peppermint Fudge. Gluten & dairy free. Top secret recipe by Cass. :)
Lina painted this lovely sign for Momma. Such a good reminder!
