The One Where we Visit a Church

I'm pretty sure I can count on one hand the number of full weekends Marc has had so far in 2013, so since he finally has not only the whole weekend, but a four day weekend, we decided to do a little bit of exploring that we've had on the list for a while.

We drove past this very old church a few weeks ago and had been wanting to go back and check it out some more. T was very impressed with the "princess castle temple".

It was pretty cool - the followers of John Wesley had been meeting in that location since the 1770's, but the church that's there now was built in 1896.

The girls were fascinated with all the graves - I'm pretty sure this was their first time in any sort of graveyard. There were some super old ones, from the 1800's, but also some as recent as 2009. It was kind of cool to see that many of the headstones had names that coordinated with different town and county names around here.

Teresa really liked these two stones, and called Marc over to take pictures of her with them.

We thought this grave was appropriate for Memorial Day this weekend. 

And, of course, we had to take the opportunity to get some pictures of our girls.

                     

Teresa's laugh in the above picture was in response to me swinging Nora around. Poor babe slipped right out of my hands as we spun and went flying. Luckily she landed in a nice thick patch of grass and thought it was funny. 

  

  

                                       

                                       

And I found these two on the camera from a few weeks ago. Silly girls.
