I had a most terrible weekend. Nothing I can really get into, but because if a misunderstanding or miscommunication at church I had some very unpleasant experiences. Mike was trying to be supportive and he was wonderful. But to come home to that after the rough and emotional 2 weeks with my parents. I was wiped out. We woke up Monday to snow. It ended up being a record snow fall. Mike was heading out of town, I tried to get him not to go just call the people and tell them he got snowed in. He laughed and said ho would believe that this late in May! Mike refused to wear a coat because he said it wasn't cold anywhere else he was going, and he didn't want to drag it around.
Mike felt bad to leave me. He ask how I was feeling and I told him, that I didn't want to be living my life right now. He laughed and said he knew the feeling himself. After I dropped him off I decided I need a quick reminder of the good things in my life. So I dropped in on the girls!
This is Issy talking to Papa.
Elizabeth was a little shy with me when I got back from Texas. But she warmed back up Monday morning.
It sure is nice to have a grown daughter whom is also a dear friend. As Erin was growing up, I used to think how awesome Heavenly Father was for letting us create our own best friends! So I told Erin of all my whoa's and troubles and she was protective and made me feel better. Then I had to leave. Did I mention it was snowing? Well it was a little chili and as they walked me to the door, their heater popped on and this is what Issy did. It was so cute, she said "I get my feet warm!"
Yesterday Chris and I were out, and met up with Erin and the girls. We grabbed some lunch and went to a park. Just as we got there. We had some cloud cover and it cooled down a little and everybody else left. So we had the park to ourselves.
We played and played.
Chris was a good uncle and played with the girls too.
Issy was so funny. she made everybody yell "squirrel" as they went down the slide. None of us could figure out why.
Elizabeth was loving the slide. She was so happy!
I loved this shot of Issy she looks like she has had a bit to much fun.
But I do count my husband, kids, and grandkids as my most amazing blessings. They can cheer me right up!

Lorena I am so very sorry about what you are going through! you must call me and know that I am here for you too! you are blessed by the way! you really are! CALL ME girl!
Do I need to drive out there and give you a hug? Because you are about the best sister-in-law ever, and you should know that. I hate misunderstandings at church. It usually means that the misunderstander is someone who is a little off balance - not feeling "good enough" or feeling TOO "good" and looking for a hurt or a reason to feel justified about something. I'm sorry Mike had to leave, but I know what you mean about having daughters who are dear friends. I have three of them, and they are sometimes all that stands between me and my head going under. I'm glad the day turned into something comforting, reassuring and beautiful. Is there somebody I need to beat up for you?
Missy Kay, So wish we lived closer. Sorry for your rotten day but it looked like it improved vastly by the end. Just don't forget that your three Griswold cousins adore you and think not only are you the best cousin in the world, but an amazing friend too. Love you. -Alli
P.S. You will be missed these next two weeks. But don't worry, we've decided it needs to be an annual event-- so next time. :)
Thank you my family and friends, I love that you are protective of me too:-)
