Playing Catch Up...

So, I recently got reprimanded over not writing a blog lately. However, I have been very very busy!
My mom and now Step-dad got married on April 1, 2013. And no, this is no April Fool's joke.  I took quite a few pictures, so I have chose my favorite's to display to you all that follow this blog.





This is the whole family, all together!! Lol.

 Mom and Dad.
 The boys and I.
 All the kids together, Evans, Lee, and Lindbloms.
 Dad putting the ring on Mom's finger.

When the judge said, "You may kiss the bride."


All in all, this week has been busy.  This is all I have to update as of right now.  I will write again next Friday, after my Columbia trip and Math contests!!


See Y'all Later,
Pixie

Tornadoes and Florida

It's Saturday afternoon around 3 pm and I sit here watching the weather on the computer.
We lost cable about 10 minutes ago.

Heavy rain and lightening, winds moderate, but pea size hail also.

And we are under a dadburn Tornado Warning..............

The heaviest cell is moving or about to move over the top of us.

Shoot, I moved down here to avoid those tornadoes..............

More hail and it is getting bigger.      Hope the roof holds out........

More later

A road from Florida's past

The other day, that perfect bride of mine and I were out goofing off and turned left at the next turn and headed down a road we haven't had the pleasure to travel in our short time here in the Sunshine state.

So ambling down this road, I saw a sign that pointed to the right stating "Florida Scenic Highway".  
So we turned right onto the "Old Brick Road" here in St. Johns County.


Our view as we started down the "Old Brick Road". 

 
It is a one lane brick road, with cobblestones on sides

 
close up of the bricks.  Regular size.
 
So we started to drive down the brick road to see where it went.
Then the rain came, and the sand turned to mush, then the rains came harder and I wished I had the 4X4 instead of the dually.
 
But after 30 minutes we came out near the town of Bunnell.
Of course Viola wanted me to turn around about half way when the roadside sign proclaimed
"Proceed at your own risk"
"Welcome to Flagler County"
 
Am researching the reason for the road, that starts out in the middle of nowhere and ends up almost in the middle of nowhere.
 
so thats what we did
