Boy is it ever Hot in Ohio!!! It got to 102 today, according to our outside thermometer. I had a appointment at the Diabetes Hospital at 1pm, which is about 2-3 miles from my house and by the time David and I got there, we were drenched and I felt I needed another shower, and I had just taken one. Tomorrow is supposed to be even hotter here. I don't ever recall it being this hot, for this long in Ohio, since I have been here since 1998. Now, I LOVE summer, but this is miserable, especially for David. We don't have air conditioning in our van, as it needs fixed, so it's so hard on him, and I can't drive anymore, due to diabetes. Keep him in your prayers. A man, 52 yrs old died yesterday, close to us due to the heat. It makes you feel so bad for the soldiers fighting in the desert for our freedom, in gear in heat like this. Pray for them, and all of us who are dealing with this heatwave.
Now on to the 4th. We went up to my daughters, for a week. My son and his family also came up, and we shared the time together. We had a very good time. I didn't get any pics of the grownups, but got some of the kids.
Here is Taylor and Brice
Taylor started her 1st job that week. She is working at Sonic. She is 16. I am proud of her.
Here is Morgan.
She is 10 years old and so advanced for her age. She is in the gifted program at school. So pretty and smart!!
Here is Sydney.
She is 8 yrs old and acting all silly for Nanny.. LOL. Sweet girl.
Here is Cooper.
He is 4 yrs old and ALL BOY!! He is nonstop from "get up time", to "go to bed" time. He is growing up so fast!!!
Here is Brice, my son's little boy.
He is 2 yrs old, all boy, and looks exactly like his Daddy!! Makes me want to raise Jeremy all over again!!! He is a very good little boy, so sweet.
David loves those kids, but seems to have a special bond with Morgan. It's so sweet watching them together.
They are so alike, Both are laid back, rather be on computer, or watching TV type people...LOL
He loves those boys too, and they love their Grandpa David!!
The kids were playing around with us and got their play wigs out...LOL Here are some shots of that!! LOL
Here is me with Cooper and Sydney.
Here is David....LOL
Cooper...
Brice and Grandpa David..
Here is Morgan...
I went and bought ice cream, to fix sundae's for dessert. I figured making them would be fun, and cheaper!!! Here are the boys, Cooper and Brice eating theirs. We had enough for 2 nights of desserts!!
I guess you can see we had a WONDERFUL time. It was much needed for this Nanny to see some of the grands and get some kisses, hugs, and love to get me by to seeing them or some of the others again. Grandchildren are such gifts. They give us a reason to go on.
We will be going back up there, it's only a 2 hr trip, again at my birthday, for the annual Pemberville parade. My oldest grand daughter Taylor is marching in it. She is Head Cheerleader for her high school. David loves the parade, and that makes me smile and happy. 2 yrs ago it was HOT!!, and last year cool and raining. I hope this year, it will be somewhere inbetween.
I hope everyone is doing great! Drink plenty of fluids in this heat, wear light colored clothes and stay in AC when you can. Remember to check on the elderly neighbors, and try and be safe and cool!!
God Bless~
