So you know how I'm always posting on here about going places with the family and we always have a great, awesome, fun time? Well, just so you know I am human, things don't always go as planned.
On fathers day morning we loaded up 3 vehicles FULL of stuff, headed to the mountains for a picnic and fun day with family and friends. About 15 minutes into the trip it started to rain, still we pressed on, surely it wouldn't last ALL day, I mean how many times does it rain for a whole entire day? Ha, well we get to the mountains and it's pouring rain, we stop at a gas station and the man working there said "did yall hear they are calling for severe storms?" At this point we had to call the trip a disaster and head home. We had 12 coolers of food for a picnic but decided to stop at Pizza Hut in Boone and have lunch. We got there about 11am and they don't start serving the buffet til noon. We had NOTHING better to do, since we'd planned to be gone an entire day anyway we just sat in the restaurant for an hour til they opened the buffet. It was nice, we had time to talk, and enjoy our time together even though it was pouring down outside! We ate our lunch and all 14 of us loaded up in the vehicles and headed back home....even though it wasn't the day we had planned it still wasn't so bad, and we even learned a valuable lesson - ALWAYS check the weather before leaving the house!
I'm sure that will be a father's day we will never forget!
