The sight most likely to be seen in a 12.5 hours driving day
This was how we knew we were in TN :)
We then spent the next day going from TN to Oxford AL and praise the Lord it was a shorter day on the road, less eventful with sickness and weather and we found a beautiful little park called Nocolulu Falls in AL to stop at.
Feb 19th was a new record for us. We drove 700+ miles from Rochester to Church Hill, TN where we stayed at a prophets chamber at Liberty Baptist Church. It was an adventure. First Sarah got sick (i'll refrain from details), then Emma got sick in the same manner, followed by, yep, Sarah again... By the second day of travel, 3/4 of them had runny noses, coughs etc beside the stomach issues experienced on day one. We went through a number of snow flurries and some pretty slick roads in the north but the Lord brought us to our destination safely, in good time and with tremendous thanksgiving. Not everyone had such an uneventful trip considering we saw a tractor trailor jackknifed in a ditch, a tanker truck that hit a guardrail and a mercedes spin out and end up in a ditch. The highlight of the day for the girls was driving through tunnels that went through mountains in WV and VA.
Since I was driving, I couldnt take pictures out the window like I might have otherwise while driving through such beautiful areas but Emma was happy to sit in the back with a play camera and say cheese for hours on end! Other fun times were when Steph tried getting Emma out of a craft box in the prophets chamber and ended up getting her hands covered in glue in the process and when Sarah locked us out of the bathroom door at the church leaving me to take apart the handle assembly to get us access again. Fun times.

Day three brought us to Ocean Springs and our home church of Grace Independent where we enjoyed an incredible conference and tremendous blessings through the week. I look forward to sharing some of the great things God has done the past couple of weeks in future posts but it is now time to hit the road again from Pensacola to Al for a meeting on Sunday and then off to TN for a conference on Monday. Thanks for praying for us.
