Ahhh- it always seems to happen that I forget to post in August and have to play catch up. Ok- here's a little of the first two weeks or so.
Tropical Storm Flossie made her presence known for about 30 min here. All day we had really hot and humid weather, and overcast skies. Then about 5:30 pm it started to just pour. Ridiculous rain.
These are pics of Garrett's sidewalk in front of his building. In a matter of minutes it flooded.
The thunder and lightning, along with the power going out, freaked all of us out. I neglected to take pictures because we were cuddling with the kids. Luckily, it didn't last long.
But, during the peak of the storm, our neighbor's wooden playset and trampoline blew over their fence into our yard. Also, one of my Dad's orange trees uprooted!
Here's some reference pics to help visualize what happened. These pics were taken after the wooden playset had been cleared. That wooden playset you see on the left blew over the fence into our driveway.
Here's the remnants of the trampoline and the large holes that were left. We're so thankful no one was hurt!
My Uncle decided to try replant the tree...
Low and behold it's sprouting! YAY!
We think we had extra strong wind come through one part of the yard, which caused the neighbor's playset and our tree to bear the brunt of it!
Kendyll started preschool! She was SO excited and has been doing great!
We welcomed our new cousin Kaleb into this crazy family!
Since Chaz's mommy and daddy were busy with Kaleb, we took him out to the movies...
then brought him to sleep over. The boys had so much fun playing outside.
No tears for Cade's first day of Kindergarten! WHOO HOO!
He and Daddy earned a reward for having a great first day!
Lastly, Garrett's baseball season has started up again, which means we get to spend our Sundays watching him!
These two crazies how been Daddy's biggest fans and cheerleaders! It's so cute how they're the only ones cheering... but Garrett loves it! :)
