It's pouring, inside and out!!!

Both Taylor and Lylee were excited to wear their raincoats, until the wind started blowing and then it was very cold. Every umbrella that we saw today was blown inside out by the wind! Taylor would really like to go puddle jumping if the wind would just stop.


We got our water line fixed last night. YAY!!!!! We have been doing loads of laundry all day!!

Apparently the mud on top of the pipe shifted and broke it. We are waiting for the rain to stop so that we can put sand down the hole. Hopefully this won't happen again. This is the fourth time in the last year that we have been without water. We've been watching the cleanup begin on our street the last few days. Fences have been patched, propped or just replaced by tarps. Trees have been removed. There are still a few stray roof shingles that go flying whenever the wind kicks up. One of our neighbors behind us even lost part of their chimney. Thankfully, all of the people that we know are physically just fine. It is definately a reminder to be prepared.
