Precious Moments Pictures...

I already wrote a blog for today, but in working on all the pictures that needed restored, I ran across our stop in Carthage, Mo, where the Precious Moments factory is located....  It was back in August of 2007, and I wasn't using blogger then but some other program.

I did put these in a blog at that time, but think they are just as pretty yet today... Enjoy.. Click on the first picture and it should take you to the album in Picasa.


















This little chapel is down in the basement and is for the children that have departed our life too young, and for their parents that have suffered thru their loss...  It brings tears to your eyes just to stand there.




I purchased this little statue and it is in our cabinet on display yet today....


Loyce stood next to this figure so you could see how big is really is...



Precious Moments is a neat if not touching stop on your RV journey....

  1. Rod, it's all closed and gone. We were there is 2005 and loved it. Jim and I wanted to go back and remember our time there with my Mom and Dad so in 2010 we stopped by and it is closed. When the economy went to pot they were forced to close the doors and declare bankruptcy. So very sad.

    1. Sandie, I think this is back open as they have an active web site and list 2012 hours of operation....

      I also think the figures are still available, but haven't looked into it other than on the web site.....

  2. Great pics Rod - thanks for posting. I think I'd have trouble visiting the little basement chapel - too sad!
