Stormy NIGHT.......




I am getting slack!! I do have sooo much to blog about just not enough time in my day - I know MANY can relate!! It's kinda like scrap booking - I LOVE it but ask me the last time I scraped ( this is bugging me is it 2 pp's?? scrapped? I think so LOL!!) ..... way to long ago and I have soo much to catch up on! At least my friends Nicole and Sue keep me some what able to to catch up - they have an awesome scrapbook "CLUB" that every few months we all get together and they have all the papers ready and the BEST layouts- all I have to do is show up with a little money and a few hours later I am done with WAY better pages then I could ever create!! Anyway enough of that -the reason I am sitting down to blog is that last night it finally RAINED!!!! Yippee right?, WRONG!!!!!! I feel totally ungrateful that all this time I have been praying for rain for my one flower I am able to keep alive and here it is RAINING and I am thinking - Please not so loud!! LOL Well here is the story behind it- My friend Julie and I went to the Y to work out ( GO US!!) and then took all the kids ( 7 together!) to the Siskey water park for a good 3 hours meaning no nap for the little ones which was fine because I fixed dinner at 430 - way early I know- had them bathed and ready for bed by 7 and no complaints were even made about GOING to sleep!! I was able to get some laundry folded and lay down in bed to watch a little TV before early bed when I heard the thunder....... By 9pm it was a full blown STORM and so loud 3 of the 4 woke up and snuck into bed- then power went off which made everyone that much more scared ( don't know why only one light was on anyway!LOL) but Daddy saved the day and found candles and tucked everyone in our bed ( this is WHY he HAD to have king bed by the way - in case this ever happened!! :) LOL!) and settled everyone down just like the superhero he is!! Finally after hours of being poked and laid on and after the storm passed everyone was carried to bed ( again super hero daddy!) and we fell asleep again only to have Cash man wake up at 12am and come sleep with us for a few more hours!! So 6am came way to early this morning but boy does my flower and butterfly bush look better -a little....... :0 )
