24th Happy in my Life


As I was browsing other family members blogs to find something that might spark a new Happy. I found this picture. This night made me happy. It is a very long story but it was a whole lot of the following-

1- car problems

2- hungry kids (and one very hungry grandpa)

3- Me, my mom and my sister thinking we were HILARIOUS. (Oh and we were, trust me)

that led to my Dad and his infamous tantrum.


This is my Dad after his got out of the car, slammed his car door, stomped off, while saying a few choice words, then threw his keys on the grass before he proceeded to throw himself on the ground. It was funny. It was called for, it was a frustrating night but this picture reminds me how funny my family can be. This makes me happy. Gotta love my Dad!

Best Dad moment ever!! I have a pic from when we were FINALLY at the restaurant and he had just yelled at the lady because we had to wait to be seated! What a night!

You are brave putting that picture and story on here!

So, does your Dad get that from my Dad or vice versa? Your story just reminded me of one of our "Dad" stories. Now I can't stop smiling and laughing to myself. Thanks!

You need a recording of your mom TELLING that story. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. :) The funniest part for me is that it so sounds like something MY dad would do!

Funny dads.

p.s. I added you as a GoodReads friend and I'm a little bothered that I haven't received a confirmation. What is it, Tara? Am I not cool enough for you? My taste in books a little too radical? :)
