Jennie Coleman Hernandez and Grace did a wonderful job of decorating our home for the fall season!! Drop by and see for yourself!

What fun! We had over eighty AOPi girls eat lasagna dinner prepared by Charity Riley, Mary Margaret Chester, Jennifer Stroh. Good job girls!

We were so happy to have Tyler and Alex Branscum come to visit. They loved playing with our grandson, Kizer, and our new dog Moses!

September 14,2010 we were blessed to have the Anthony Courter family of 11 children to visit our backyard town. We should all take lessons from this family on how to raise children. Not one time did the parents have to say a word to them. The old children took care of the younger ones. They ranged in ages from 2 years old to 21 years old. They listened and were the best behaved children I have ever seen. They blessed us before leaving with a song from the scriptures and once again they were awesome! Hope they come back soon!

We were honored to have Thomas and Hazel Murrah from Memphis, TN to celebrate their 57th wedding anniversary with us on August 2, 2010! What a wonderful couple and have they witness for our Lord Jesus Christ!

Congratulations to our newlyweds Joe & Dena Crews from Newbern, TN. They got married in our little wedding chapel on May 19, 2010. This was our 15th wedding in the chapel. God Bless You!

Our friends Jim & Kelly Germain recommended our B&B to their friends Dan & Carol Hegman from Hudson, WI. They stayed in the Lincoln Log Cabin on their way to West Virginia. We really did enjoy their visit.

We have had several folks to ask about the inside
of the Train Station. We have told them about
the king size bed but we never knew how many
it would hold comfortably until this weekend.
We had three sisters get together this weekend:
Joan Surles from Montgomery, Alabama
Doris Jelley from Franklin, N.C.
Betty Yambrek from Lakeland, TN
We thought only two people would fit.
They showed us three people could fit!
Then Mike had to get in bed with these three
women to show 4 people could fit!!! You go honey!
Lots of laughs!

Dear Cathy, Mike, & Clint,
Thanks for such an awesome weekend. This was probably one of the best annual get together with our friends with a big thanks to all of you. Both Mike & I were skeptical about staying at a bed & breakfast, but what a wonderful surprise. The accommodations were wonderful, the food absolutely delicious (and totally unexpected), but the hospitality was way beyond words. We felt like family the whole time we were there.
Thanks again and God Bless You all, Mike and Jayne Carstensen
