Another Birthday

It seems that the only events going on in our lives at the moment are our birthdays. With Joel's coming up at the end of the month it will be four birthday posts in the last few months.

For my birthday Mark and I had a night away at a little town about an hour from Louisville called Bardstown. It was established in 1780 which makes it the second oldest town in Kentucky. We dined at a restaurant built in 1779 which was originally a western stagecoach stop, the oldest in America. A wonderful family who have four girls of their own looked after our children for us. We had a wonderfully refreshing time away and the children had a great time also.

Elizabethtown was on our way home which is also an old town made famous by the recent movie "Elizabethtown". It brought back memories of sitting in our Hastings, NZ, home watching the movie and trying to gain some insight into what life in Louisville might be like.
