no school . . . it's raining!

i woke up to the radio station announcing "no school for g'town"! i shot up . . . i checked the news and the internet and couldn't believe it . . . g'town got over 15 inches of rain through the night. there was so much flooding that school was closed! what a treat for the girls . . . i let them sleep in . . . ken shot out of bed at 7:30 and panicked becasue she knew it was light out and it's pretty dark when we leave for the bus . . . she was getting dressed when i told her! she took her clothes off, put her p.j.'s back on and jumped up and down! mck was soooo happy when she finally rolled out of bed at 8! and poor little kam (who only gets to go to school one day a week!) was devastated! she was so sad . . . and she now thinks that any time it rains we don't have school!
we had a fun day of pancakes, p.j.'s, watching t.v., and playing . . . this is what the playroom looked like at 9:00 a.m. . . . imagine what it looked like by 6 p.m.! :)

rain . . . FINALLY!

after a summer of virtually no rain, the girls were thrilled when it started pouring today! :) they loved hearing the thunder and seeing a little bit of lightning! we're hoping more is on the way! :)
