Backyard BBQ and crazy thunderstorms...

Last night Missy and Rob hosted a BBQ at Rob's house. It was fun, and a nice way to relax after a somewhat stressful but boring day at work. We had shish kabobs and pork and chicken, as well as fresh pineapple and cherries! I enjoyed hanging out with everyone, although there weren't too many there.

What a beautiful thunderstorm it was this morning! I could not believe my ears, and then thunder felt like it was right over top of us! I looked out the window, and the intensity and brightness of the fork lightening almost seared my retinas. I was once again awed by the sheer power of a storm.

I was going to walk to work, but if I didn't have to actually look nice when I get to work, I probably would have. Thankfully a friend of mine gave me and someone else a ride.

I am looking forward to tomorrow, and I hope everyone else has a lovely day!

God bless!

Love, Ashleigh

Dear Ash,
I am glad you had such a nice evening BAR BQ with your friends and the menu sounded Yummy!

We got a bad storm here in the morning yesterday and in the evening as well, but it cleared up beautifully for the afternoon bridal shower for my cousin Gayle’s daughter, which was outside on their patio.
The storm really did a number at some places in Toronto and other areas and some people may be without their power for a few days.
That is definitely NOT FUN!
I talked to a couple of people who live in high rise condos in the city and they said that it was quite spectacular to watch the storm from that height!

I am glad you were able to get a ride to work and that you didn’t have to appear as a drowned rat!
Hope your day is going good for you.
I love you so much.
XOXO
