Fun Times

A lot has happened in a week's time. Del has been sick pretty much all week (at least since Wednesday) with a fever and sore throat. And today, his left eye has started matting and is extremeley red. He's been so sick he actually agreed to go to Urgent Care with no resistance. They have no idea what he has, but they do know that it is not strep throat. Whatever it is, it is really dragging him down, much to his dismay. It was absolutely gorgeous here this weekend for our three day weekend, and he was not able to golf once. You know he must be really sick, if it keeps him from golfing!!

It has been a week since April and Jake's wedding. It was a beautiful wedding and the weather held out nicely for it. Here are a few of my favorite shots from the event.
Great Uncle Del having a raspberry contest with baby Jesse...

A perfect shot of April...
And the happy couple...

In other events...I went to the White Water Center here in Charlotte with a couple of girls from work on Saturday to experience the Climb 2 Zip. I was very excited to do this. Let me tell you...it was a lot harder than I thought it would be. The falling from the 32 foot platform with only a rope and a harness holding you in was not the hard part, either...
It was the climb up the 32 foot pole that was the scariest...
But I ended up doing it twice and it was so well worth it. Thanks Jennifer for suggesting us to go. I had a blast and I'm so proud of us!!
(Don't you just love the hats?!?)

I never thought it would be this hard...



We are heading to Toledo for the weekend for my niece's wedding. So, of course, we had to find a place for Maggie to stay while we are away.

We heard about a place from a colleague that raved about it. It is called K-9 Ranch. We signed her up for two swim sessions and then a bath and brush before coming home on Monday. I know she is going to have fun and will be fine, but she was not too sure about it while I was there and looked at me with those sad, pitiful eyes. It broke my heart to leave her there and I cried all the way home.
I told Del that he has to drop her off for our next trip in August. I can't take it!!
