Todd, Wayne and Dad Checking out the bike!
Bailey, Todd, and Bubba!!
Dad showing off his WartHogs colors!!!We went to visit my real dad this weekend and my stepmom Fran. Some of you LOYAL readers may know that I do not have much communication with my real Dad. A lot of things have happened in the past and we have not always had the best relationship. On a positive note I really think that he is trying to change and he realizes what he lost for so many years. Now that he has grandkids I think he is finally realizing the importance of family. So, we were invited to a cook out at his house for my brother and stepsister Baily's birthdays. I was very nervous about taking Gage over there because my dad is a drinker and I don't really want my son around that. But Mark (may dad) called my sister and said that he would not drink and he wanted to make sure that he did things right this time around... he didn't want to screw things up anymore! (For those of you who know the situation that is REALLY great! It is a big step for him to even admit that drinking is a problem for him) Anyway, we went over there and we had a really great time! It was the first time since I was about 13 that all three of us kids were there at the same time and now we all have kids. I think my dad was in his glory! He was happy as can be and we all really enjoyed ourselves. This was the first time in a LONG time that I felt comfortable around them and was really able to enjoy myself and my dad!! I am very thankful to God that he has been able to help my family heal and I am looking forward to much more healing in the future!
