Down Home

My mom and I took the kids down to Tennessee for a long weekend. This trip was planned because Mom has written a book for them all about her childhood. My four children are the main characters who travel back in time and meet her when she was three years old. The five of them have adventures, then they go on to meet more of her family. All the while trying to figure out how to get back home. It is really cute and my kids LOVE it! So, we decided to take them down and show them in real life.

Mom grew up in...wait for it...Boogersville, TN (Now Cunningham, TN) just outside of Clarksville, TN. They were struggling farmers and endured all the obstacles that accompany that life. Here are a few pics of the old farm...

We had a really great time. Lots of laughs and stories and walks down memory lane. The kids are ready to back and run on the hills of the farm (they were unable to due to rain the day before). Hopefully, we will get the chance to one day.
