Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to my hubby, my Dad, and my Father-in-law! Hope you enjoyed your day!

Today we got back from our trip out of state for a family wedding. It was a 5 hour drive and when we got there, we realized how the Lord took care of us on our journey!!
We had our van serviced the beginning of last week and got it back on the Thursday, the day before we left for our trip. I was a little anxious with all the repairs they did and then having to drive so far (hoping and praying all repairs were done properly!). When we arrived at our destination, we took a trip to Wal-Mart and noticed our temperature gauge was starting to climb rather quickly. We pulled into the parking lot and hubby lifted the hood and behold......no radiator cap!!!! We had noticed along the way when we pulled into rest areas along the interstate that we were losing a little more fluid than just the normal 'air-conditioning-water puddles' left under the vehicle. I believe the mechanics forgot to put the radiator cap back on!!!!!!! The Lord had been watching out for us all the way, because we could have been in the middle of the interstate when it happened- in over 100 degree weather. We were able to get a new cap for the vehicle and hubby's uncle was able to get the van back to working condition, we made it to the wedding on time, and arrived home safely!! I seriously do not think I can take anymore stress :)
The wedding was enjoyable though....although I did not get a single picture. The kids loved staying in a hotel but at times it got a little crazy :)......it was way too hot to play outside, so we stayed indoors for the most part. The Lord was so gracious in providing the funds we needed to get there and back (thank you!!!)
Our God takes care of us....we see it continually everyday!
