Cornerstone

This last week was the Cornerstone Festival. The whole fam was there the whole time. Matt and I went for the day on saturday.
I've always wanted to go. And it is a very cool place. But I guess since being married or something, music is what it used to be to me. So I knew like, hardly any of the bands that were there. And a lot of the ones I did know, played before we got there. It was still a good time and we did get to see one band we really like!

I took this picture of...er...I mean for Josh. For obvious reasons.This is one of many generator stages. This seemed to be on of the bigger ones. The guy with the beard is also playing at one. Basically they were for unsigned bands that were trying to get noticed. All these stages were real close together. Like to the right of this one, was a road, and then another stage. At one point, when there were a bunch of people at this stage (such as in the pic) the band from the other stage was facing this crowd and playing! quite funny. Someone called the generator stage area "Chainsaw alley." haI think this is my favorite picture. Everyone just wants to be noticed!Joel doing what Joel does best.
And Hosanna doing what Hosanna does best: biting her nails and talking! (below)
I think this was Matt and I's favorite show/band (Their name is Luminate). We just walked into this tent and saw them. They're really good. Kinda reminded us of Phil Whickham. And Matt, Hosanna and I at the main stage.Joel with some friends playing some strange foot game. He played it for forever, so apparently it's pretty fun.This is the main stage. The night before was David Crowder. sniff sniff.

This is Hosanna dancing. I missed the real funny part when she was rocking it out, head banging and all.
This is Haste the Day. A band that Matt likes a lot...or at least did.

ha! Only Hosanna.

It was a nice trip to see my fam before we leave. Eight more days!!

Oh and there were some funny shirts there. This was one of Matt and I's favorite.Front

Hannah's Graduation

Well she did it! Hannah made it through school and indeed graduated.

This is Hannah watching all of our lovely songs to her. I'm pretty sure she was thrilled...so much so that she showed pretty much everyone, including people at JPUSA. I guess it's worth the humilition to make her happy.

I tried to put just these two pictures together but I couldn't. So this is Hosanna posing for her Grandma, and the other is her posing for me. Can you guess which is which?
Ok I know Mom and Hannah don't look the greatest in this picture, but hey, they're obviously not the important ones now are they? And that person looks just great!
Hannah in her room at JPUSA. I wanted to take more pics but...I didn't.

Madison

This past weekend Matt and I along with his mother and grandmother, went to Madison, Indiana. A cute little town along the Ohio river. It's a town of only about 12,000 and it's downtown has been kept real historic. There was a movie about it called Madison with Jim Cavizel (Jesus in The Passion). It's a pretty good movie and you see a lot about the town.
anwho...here's some pictures.

An overview look of Madison. Across that bridge of course is Kentucky.

Here is Matt and I at the cave that's in the movie. It actually is a tunnel. We only went a little ways because we didn't have a flashlight and it gets creepy. Ok so this is pretty right? It is 80something feet. Wow. Big drop. Then that night it rained and poured (it was that storm system that brought all those tornado's to Georgia and whatnot). So as we're driving out we decided to take a look at the falls figuring it'd be cool with all the rain.....Wow! What a difference! Very cool.
And here's another big falls. This is why the state park is called "Clifty Falls." This is where we saw some guys from a search party. Turns out there is a 26 year old guy who has been missing for almost two weeks. Terrible! As we were leaving there were a TON of people getting to go ready to search. Sounds like he came to the park a lot. I hope they find him!
