State History Assignment 12#

Song Title:
Beautiful Ohio
Written by Ballard MacDonald
special lyrics by Wilbert B. McBride
Composed by Mary Earl

Song Verses:

I sailed away;
Wandered afar;
Crossed the mighty restless sea;
Looked for where I ought to be.
Cities so grand, mountains above,
Led to this land I love.

Chorus

Beautiful Ohio, where the golden grain
Dwarf the lovely flowers in the summer rain.
Cities rising high, silhouette the sky.
Freedom is supreme in this majestic land;
Mighty factories seem to hum in tune, so grand.
Beautiful Ohio, thy wonders are in view,
Land where my dreams all come true!

When was it adopted? 1969
Who was it written by? Ballard Macdonald
What are your thoughts about it? I like it

Pics of My Christmas

I don`t have Pics of my Dad or of Daniel looking at the camera to put on here, but here are some of the pics that were taken Christmas morning:
Me and my sister`s with our new wrist warmers on,

Ben and his new little bag,


Daniel opening his bag that says Daniel over the front,

Mom with her new picture frames,

Joanna and Ben`s new farm house,

Tim and his eye spy container.
Hope you liked the pics.
