Atlanta is flooding!

Can you believe the city and its surrounding counties are flooding? I can't really believe it either but it has rained and stormed for almost 72 hours straight which of course has resulted in flooding. There have also been several deaths unfortunately. Many of the roads are flooded causing traffic to be even slower and small streams have turned into raging rivers. The kids and I were stranded in the house all weekend because of the storms. Paul was on call and I didn't have the strength to fight the rain with the kids. Saturday wasn't too bad because we just sat around the house in our pj's and bonded. We also took a 3 hour nap which was much needed. But Friday wasn't a complete bust because we attended/participated in a Father Son Basketball Tournament on behalf of Paul's office to kick off their annual men's health fair which serves thousands of black men. My brother and his son also participated in the tournament as well. Trey didn't have the best experience because his daddy was working and didn't get there until 20 minutes before it ended. Basically enough time to pick him up to shoot the ball a couple of times and dribble around then he made a speech and announced the activities surrounding the health fair on the next day.





Nonetheless, Trey still had a great time playing with the Clark Atlanta Univeristy basketball players who were volunteering. They helped him learn to dribble and chased him around a little, he thought it was cool of course.

Preston walked around for a little while, then he fell asleep in his Auntie Shirl's arms.

I am glad Paul showed up. That would have been sad if he did not come to play with Trey. Rain, rain go away.
