Appalachian Museum- vacation part 2

After we went on our scenic train ride we drove to Clinton, TN and visited the Museum of Appalachia.  We were there on the fouth of July so they had some fun activities for the day.  If you can't read the sign Nathan is pointing to... it says "smoke house/meat house"  If you know Nathan- you know that he loves meat!  We thought this would be the perfect pose for him.

Leanna and Landon are looking a little worn out.  Leanna got stung by a bee right after we took this picture and you would have thought that her foot was going to fall off.  We had to walk all the way back to our car parked in a hot field, change her into tennis shoes and get ice and a band-aid. She hobbled around the rest of the day, but eventually recovered. 

I thought this turned out well.  Leanna and Landon in their matching flag shirts. 

This is how Landon spent most of the day.  Being pushed around in a stroller on a bumpy gravel path can lull anyone to sleep.  I think he actually got a bruise on his head from being jostled around and knocking his head on the metal sides of the stroller. The highlight of the day was when Leanna was chosen to ring the bell for one of the original thirteen colonies.  She was so excited b/c she was chosen to ring it for KY.  Well, needless to say, the other kids got out of order and she was beside the bell for Rhode Island.  Leave it to Leanna- she just walked away and got back at the end of the line to wait for her "real turn".  We have this on video so we can use it to embarrass her someday.  Well the last bell ringing was for TN which she ended up doing, but was disappointed b/c it wasn't KY.  We tried to convince her that it was even better to ring it for TN, but she didn't think so. 
Sorry it's been so long between posts.  I couldn't figure out how to load pictures with the updated editor setting and I've started back to school so it's been busy!
