Happy Father's Day to my Dad

Happy Belated Father's Day Dad !!!!!!!!!!

We are going to visit my dad on Saturday and I can't wait. I think my brothers and sisters are all coming down also but I'm not really sure yet. It's still in the planning stage. My dad and mom live on a lake front.They have boats and all the fun lake stuff. The kids have a ball swimming,jumping off the dock,paddle boating and just having fun at grandma and grandpa's.

It's been so hot that I may even take a dip in the lake and I really don't like the water. If I get out where it is deep I start to panic.

I love the picture of my Dad. He's pulling the grand kids around the lake on the tube.He loves it as much as they do.

I can't wait to see everyone and give my dad his gifts.

I love you Dad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rainbow In The Sky

My son Matt came up from Raleigh and spent a week with us. We had a great time. We went to the Douglas Lake lake house also known as grandma and grandpa's house. Everyone had fun fishing,swimming,eating and paddle boating.Matt hadn't saw his grandparents in about 3 years and it was great getting them together again.

We spent a couple of days at the lake and then came back to my house.Matt had to be back at work on Friday so we got up early Friday morning to take him back.The traffic to Raleigh was fine,not to heavy and the weather was nice.We stayed a couple of hours then started back.The trip usually takes 3 hours 45 minutes.That day it took 5 hours.It started raining really hard about 3 hours in.It was pouring,and then the closer we got to Charlotte the crazier the traffic got.They were having Speed Street and a few big races at the Speedway.The traffic was so bad that we were hardly moving and when we did move people were driving crazy.I guess they were afraid that they would be late.It was really scary with the heavy rain and crazy people.I was in full blown panic attack mode and I wasn't even driving,my husband was.I just knew that someone was going to wreck us.After creeping and crawling through Charlotte the traffic opened up and the skies cleared.My heart finally started to calm down and I could relax.I looked out my side window and saw the most beautiful rainbow. I felt like God was saying calm down,see you made it through that,the storm is over and everything is o.k. I hate panic attacks and I really needed that rainbow:) I took pictures to share with everyone.Here's hoping that you have a rainbow just when you need it.
