GO AEP!!

So as you all know, we got hit pretty hard by Hurricane Dolly last week (it was no Katrina BUT it was still bad). My Dad works for the local electric company and those guys have been busting their butts since Thursday - with no days off I might add. My Dad has been going into work at 5AM and not getting home until about midnight. Brenna and I felt that they all deserved some sort of recognition so we made poster board signs and went and hung them at the service station on their fence. Brendon took a little time off work and came to help me, which was wonderful because it would have been really hard by myself.

Brenna and I made a total of 12 signs with all different stuff on them. Some of them were:

"THANK YOU For All Your Hard Work!"

"We Appreciate You!"

"You Are In Our Prayers"

"God said, "Let There Be Light" Then He Created Linemen to Distribute It" (my favorite)

"Long Hours + No Days Off = Hard Workin Men"

"We Are Grateful For You"

"Thank You to all of the Out-of-Town Helpers"

Brenna made her very own sign that said, "Thank you Grandpa and all your friends! Love, Brenna"

It made me feel really good to do that. And guess what??!! My signs are going to be in the paper! I will post the link if they have it on their website.

(BTW - You should be able to click on the pictures and it will make them bigger. Please excuse the mess on Brenna's face in the picture of her!! We just finished eating spaghetti for dinner! LOL)
