Kathy goes to Franklin, TN

 

My missionary sister, Kathy, flew down to visit us during the time the Washington DC Temple was closed for repairs.  I didn’t get a picture of us playing board games, but we managed to do that several times almost every single day.  Frozen yogurt was another favorite on our list. We also learned all about the Battle of Franklin, one of the bloodiest battle of the Civil War.  Thanks for the visit, Kathy.
