We have the best family and friends... and the cutest niece in the world!
One day, we went out to Lieper's Fork for lunch. Then we drove on the Natchez Trace Parkway. Gorgeous!
Of course we had to stop to buy a homegrown watermelon...
.. and to ride four wheelers at the farm. (FYI: a skirt, flip flops, and a manual four wheeler isn't the best combination)
We hung out at Ryan & Patti's new precious house.
And I got to see friends, including darling Mary and little Molly.
Patti is going to be having Whitaker really soon! Isn't she adorable?
Last night... a walk in the neighborhood, with Audrey in the wagon.. or waggy, as she calls it.
While I was in Franklin, Jack was in Malawi, South Africa. The Leeland guys played some shows, and the people loved it! They walked miles to see them and they were so joyful.
They shopped in the market one day.
But one of the best parts of the trip was going to an orphanage. The kids were so cute and loved the guys.
This little boy called Jack "daddy," which broke his heart. But the good thing is they're safe and not out on the streets.
The trip was short but life-changing. There's nothing like going to places like Africa! It changes your perspective on life. In America, we have so much, and we so often take it for granted. Though we feel like we may not be able to do much, we should do what we can, which could be simply going on a trip and holding a child who needs to be loved. Jack and I hope to go on many trips to third world countries together in the future.
That's the update on our life right now. Much love to you all!
- Jack & Whit
