Rain? Is it really?? (lots of pics)

Rain? Really??? What's that??? On July 3, we had our first rain!!! It was so nice! The day was hot and beautiful and clear!

Then out of no where, blew in a thunder storm! And answer to our prayers! We have been in such extreme drought that we have had issues with major wild fires. Water restrictions are now in place in lots of the area. It's wild! And add in triple digit temps, and it's hard! But look below, it was the most beautiful site! I can't even begin to tell you, how excited and happy i was with the beautiful storm blowing in!!!

The temp dropped, the wind picked up, and it was just awesome!!!

Even the kiddos had fun!!

The love of my life, he was so happy too!!!

I just love the picture below. ............

Oh my, yes my girl is silly! She no longer has rain boots in her size, so she ran and put on her snow boots! What a mess!

Then inside I went as the rain started to fall and it did rain pretty heavy for a bit. Thank you Jesus for the answered prayers!!!!

Hugs and Blessings,

Our July 4th! America's Birthday!

It was a birthday celebration for America, and a low key weekend for us! It wasn't to much exciting going on around here. We did go a little running around and that's about it really. Saturday Lil E and I went and had our eyes checked. Daddy was busy around the house. Sunday we actually had a lil storm blow in, that eveing! And it was so awesome!!! Monday July 4th, wasn't to much going on. No fireworks anywhere! It's hot and dry here! Been trip digits for way to long and no rain. Sunday night was the drizzle of rain, but didn't compare to what our areas needed!

Be sure to check out that sweet face of Lil E......

The girls and I headed to town, we were on a mission! To pick up Lil E's glasses! Can you believe it! She looks way to grown up with her new glasses!

Then we took a few pictures on our way home.

That evening we went to the to the Park to see the lazer show on a big screen and hear the symphony concert! You really couldn't hear the concert at all. And the lazer show wasn't anything exciting! But we were all together as a family and that is what matters most! We really missed the old 4th's full of lots of fun! The cooks outs and fun times! Just was way different this year.

We still managed to have some fun!

Happy Birthday America!!! Hope everyone had a good and special 4th!!!

Hugs and Blessings,

A big new Venture for our family..........

I hope that each of you have a wonderfully blessed and happy 4th!!! I hope everyone was safe and enjoyed the day! I can not believe that half the year is officially over! Where did it go? It sure zoomed on in!

I have been so busy this past week, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. No no, we didn't get a 3rd little blessing. (I know many all the sudden think that). But I have started my own business. I am beyond excited and it's doing pretty well in just a week.

I have started Pat-T's Shirts & More. You can become a fan on facebook. (just click there) I will have a blog up soon too.

What does Pat-T's Shirts & More have to offer ~ LOTS! I have bling and screen print right now. Will be having way more to come.

Here's a few examples of some of the goodies there is already.

I had a very hard time just picking a few. But there are more on facebook.

That's my newest venture! We have some craft shows booked, and may even set up to sale in ETSY. But for now, you can reach me through email or on facebook, and of course here too, if you are interested.

Besides individual shirts, we are setting up to do Church Fundraisers, will be donating a portion of each Cancer Shirt sold, and much more exciting things to offer! Once that blog is up and running I will not use this blog for this purpose.

Hope everyone is doing great and may each of you have a wonderful and blessed weekend!

Hugs and Blessings,
