Visit to Uncle Zac

We went to see Uncl Zac 3/12-3/14. On Friday night it was raining like crazy which made for a VERY long and dreary drive! We ate at Chili's. Then we saw our first glimpse of flooding. We were in my van and I was unwilling to risk anything so when we got back home Zac and I went out is his SUV seeming many already stranded in waters. Zac made us pancakes for breakfast! Ant and him played airsoft guns! Jayna got to talk to Aunt Rebekah on the webcam too!



Then it was time to go visit Great Nana and Poppy and the fam! We were gunna stop by the local Humane Society and take the kids to see the animals. Due to the crazy bad flooding, 3 ways to the Humane Society and Nana's were blocked. There was only one route left and go figure an accident had it haulted to one lane! So we stopped at Little Beaver Dam to take pcs of rushing water! You will notice in the pretty green pic what it looks like under norm circumstances!





We kept the kids safe out of harms way--- or so we thought but Jayna found a mud puddle face first!
We were fed well at Nana's!! Beef stew, Chilli, spaghetti, peanutbutter cooks and cantelope! It was great to see everyone! But I must mention it was a rare occassion I was glad to be a non beef eater or I REALLLLLY would have been waaay overly full like the boys!



We then went to the mall on the way home!! At last I found my shoes!! I had been looking since before Christmas for perfect shoes (willing to spend about 100) OR good shoes (meaning must have black soles, not white and some orange and good price--- under 50!) I found orange and black hiking nike shoes for only $30!! On the way home we also stopped at Berkshire icecream for homemade hot apple dumplings and icecream!!
Sunday morn Zac made cini rolls and headed off to church while we packed up and headed home. It was great seeing Zac, meeting Remmy--- his dog Remmington, and seeing his house all prettified!
