Playn', Puddles, and the park..

WHEW!!! Well it has been a crazy couple of weeks around our house. After MWC got better, we had VBS at our church. She had a great time!! She was quite worn out with being so busy after doing nothing while sick. But Thursday night, we had family night and she got to play with her friends and try hola hooping. She never quite got the hang of it, but it was fun watching her try!! :)

So after Bible School, Grandaddy and Aunt EJW came for Father's Day weekend. And it is a good thing they did. Saturday morning Grandaddy was in the backyard with his dog and noticed our grass was very wet and soggy. Apparently, we had a leak in our pipes. Who knew since we had not been in the backyard for two weeks because of her being sick and then VBS. However, our grass was NICE and green in that area. So RDC got to digging to figure out where and what the problem was. But as we have always said we are VERY fortunate to have family living near by, and we have just added one more reason. :) Pop and Granny are on a cruise so we took over their house!!! :) (We knew they would not mind, but we did call and check!! :) Anyway, so we turned off our water and packed up and headed over there. Let's see.....that was Saturday. Luckily the plumbers did come by and give an overview and said they would be back Monday morning to fix it. So---we packed more clothes!!!! RDC and I did talk about how we felt like we were on vacation because they had good, expensive cable!! :) Anyway, the plumbing was fixed Monday night about 8:00. Since it was fixed by Tuesday, I brought MWC home to take a good nap in her bed. But when we got home the water is fixed, but ~~~~~NO ELECTRICITY!!!! AT this point, I looked at Aunt EJW and laughed. (I guess to keep from crying.) Anyway, luckily, it came on about 20 minutes later. (I think it was out due to the rain and storms.) So now we are back at home with water and power!!! Praise the Lord!!!!! :)

Some of the highlights of the weekend were, we did have a great time with Grandaddy and Aunt EJW, and a good Father's Day. We went to the park and had dinner with KaKa and Will. Having them all here was a great way to keep our minds off of our plumbing problems. We can't wait until they come back when it can be a little more uneventful.
