Last week....

So last week was crazy weather here. I don't know if anywhere else had crazy weather, but it rained almost everyday or night. And when I say rained, it poured! Here is a picture of our back yard after a 10 minute or less down pour! It even hailed during that time too.


Yep, that's right. We had a pool in our back yard for the rest of the day. I guess the little grasslings liked it. But now you can see our "grass" growing in our backyard. It's in little tufts, but we just need to go buy some more seed and some fertilizer and fill in the parts that aren't growing.



Also, yesterday (Sunday) Clint and I babysat our three nephews. Now I just have to tell you, they are so fun and adorable! I love hanging out with them. There's Jackson (5), Blake (2 or 3?), and Hayden (1). I call it hanging out because that's what Jackson said we were doing. We weren't tending, we were hanging out. So here's what we did when we "hung out".






All they wanted to do was play Uncle Clint's guitars, Jam, and play the drums so we did that for a bit. Then we watched Ice Age, played the Wii, ate Mac'n'Cheese and after a whole hour and half (a very long hour and a half) their parents came and picked them up. I love my nephews, but it also made me realize some stuff. Our house is NOT baby proof. It's clean, but that means nothing! And thank goodness kids only come one at a time, usually. Our three nephews are great and we enjoyed "handing out" with them.
