Who Needs Florida?

Who needs Florida, when you have our front yard in the spring?


















I wish the pictures were better, but at least you can see what our last few hours consisted of.

We have had so much rain today and it's supposed to continue. 

We have had fun in it, but lots of people have been stranded and hurt on the interstates very close to us.

Two people confirmed dead.

Our prayers go out to people on the roads right now and rescue people in our part of Tennessee where it is so bad.

Once again, our family can say, "you might be a redneck if..."

"If you can lay on a raft and float down your front yard, you might be a redneck."

"If all five family members take their beach towels and head outside to swim in the front yard where there is no pool, you might be a redneck."

"If you live in our home, you might just have lots of crazy fun."

  6. Well, it looks like they all had lots of fun. I heard that this was a very bad storm though. I'm glad you didn't get hit like that. I loved your redneck jokes. All that rain makes for some beautiful greenery all around you though!
    Have a wonderful Mother's Day.
    Blessings,
    Marcia

  7. Hi Amy! I came but to say hi and was SO happy to hear "Revelation Song" on your playlist!! I LOVE that song and we have started doing it at our church. My husband and I are going to the Darlene Zschech and Hillsong Worship Conference this week at the Billy Graham Training Center in Asheville and I am beside myself with excitement!!!
