One Eventful Day

Wow...it's been a while. I almost forgot how to blog. I wanted to share a few details of the crazy day we had yesterday.
I knew it was going to be exciting when the principal said we could have a free jeans day.
That was only the beginning! I left the house at about 7:00 pimpin' the huge F150. Richard borrowed the Honda for a very special trip.....
Until yesterday, Richard had never met his biological father. He's 29 years old, so when the opportunity arose to meet the man that supplied half of his genetic makeup, Richard took advantage. He drove up to SC to meet Dave half way and they had lunch at Cracker Barrel and talked for about 3 hours. Richard has also been in contact with his two half sisters and is looking forward to hearing from his half brother. The whole situation is exciting. You'll have to ask Richard about it. So, I had to be at school early because the FCS (Fellowship of Christian Students) meets on Friday mornings and I am their fearless sponsor. Thankfully, coming early allowed me to miss out on the traffic that was a result of a terrible wreck on Hwy 119...many of our teachers were late and even more students. I looked super cute driving that big ole' truck. Thanks to Tropical Storm Fay (formerly Hurricane Fay) we had awful weather all day long. We spent a lot of time crouched in a hallway under Tornado warnings. Those are a lot of fun with high schoolers.
Our crazy day ended on a high note with dinner at Longhorn's with Lyndsey, Jonathan, and Sarah. We even had a gift certificate! It was a crazy day. Not a dull moment, but all in all we feel like the most blessed people on earth to have each other and such wonderful family and friends.
