The kids and I made a fast trip up to see the Tennessee branch of the family. After many years of needing a new camera, the decision to buy one was finally made. I used some rewards points to help buy a Nikon D7500. I had it delivered to Tennessee and it was almost there waiting on me. I had a lot of fun testing it out and trying some of the fun features and effects while capturing the activities going on around the house during our stay.

We just returned from spending a few days in Tennessee. Nathan was anxious to meet Elsie, Atlanta’s new baby, who is already 5 months old. The visit wasn’t long enough, but at least we were able to spend some quality time with Jordan and Atlanta and re-connect with Marian and Alan, as well.
When we first arrived, two little monkeys were peeking out the window. Then Jordan brought little Elsie out to meet granddad.
It didn’t take long for him to fall in love with her.
Later in the day we took the kids to a park nearby at Mouse Tail Landing state park on the Tennessee River.
In a couple of days, all the kids had warmed up to Granddad nicely.

Another darling child was born today in the Goodwin home in Tennessee. Little Elsie came without much fanfare or trouble. Everything went well (considering her midwife was delayed with another birth and didn’t get there in time). However, not to fear, the midwife’s daughter, Carol, being a midwife herself, had no problem helping Atlanta deliver her baby at around 3:30 in the afternoon.
