5 "things" to see and do in Kentucky (that I've done so far)

5 nieces and nephews (Drew, Adam, Alyssa, Zach, & Emma)
4 nights of Yatzee (you win some; you lose some - big time)
3 books read (Scarlett - the sequel to Gone with the Wind, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, The Handmaid's Tale - currently reading, but will finish before I leave. And, just so you know that adds up to a total of ... 1,879 pages, Scarlett has 896, HP has 672, and The Handmaid's Tale has 311)
2 Library book sales (FUN!)
1 Swimming pool (more fun!)

I'm in Kentucky right now visiting my family. Last weekend, my brother's family (Jeff, Laura, Alyssa (13), Zach (11), and Emma (6)), and I went to Morgan's Raid, a civil war re-enactment. Emma loved it! Here are a few pictures. Zach was a little disappointed that more people didn't die. (After it was over, only four people were "dead". Jeff said that they probably weren't too keen to fall off their horses). It was a fun time. Zach booed when the Confederates chased off the Yankees. (Kentucky was a border state, so it did not officially belong to either the Union or the Confederacy, and often times families were torn apart as some members fought for the North and some members for the South.) Anyway, here are a few pictures:

It seems as if we've started a trend. Since Jonathan and I began blogging, my two sisters thought it was a pretty good idea and they started blogs of their own.

Michelle has one for all the reading she does (http://3mbooklist.blogspot.com/). And you thought I read a lot... I wonder where I learned it.

Jamie just started her blog, and she is one funny girl. (http://jlaemei.blogspot.com/)

They both update theirs pretty frequently, and it makes me wish I updated mine more. But theirs are there and they're updated frequently if you want to check them out.
