Strangely enough, everytime I pull into the driveway I think 'I should roll the windows up in case it rains' and everytime, I do, and it never rains. Well, on Wednesday (7/21/10) it happened again, 'I should roll up the windows in case it rains' only this time, I answered it with 'nah. It never rains.' and I left them down. Well, wouldn't ya know it, a couple hours later, CRASH!!!!! I heard thunder. It's all good, we got out there soon enough that it wasn't flooded or anything ;), but I just thought it was crazy that the ONE TIME I don't roll them up, it rains. Maybe it's just a good way to guarantee me some of this awesome Summer rain that I love SO MUCH!! We all (grandpa too!) went outside and played in the rain a little. The kids like it when we time them running down to the gutter and see how fast they can do it. And then showing us how wet they are afterward. Lots of fun. Noah even went down and played in the gutter a little with Kelly and Charity's friend Kiara. I got some really awesome pictures of Steve while we were out on the porch, I'm going to see what I can do with them to make them look even cooler and then I will post them :)
Kelly's so fun!
The night before, while they were waiting to go to the party, Kelly and Noah asked if they could use the chalk. And for some reason I thought they meant AT THE PARK, but no, when we got upstairs to leave we saw a magnificent chalk masterpiece covering Grandpa's porch. Well, last year, I remembered him getting really annoyed with the chalk on the porch (since the rain/snow/whatever doesn't touch his porch, it never gets washed off and just ends up looking junky), so I flipped out. Anyway. This is Kelly cleaning it off. I wanted to mention how adorable she looked when Grandpa came out and said in his fake mad voice, "WHO DREW ALL OVER MY PORCH!?" And she just put her hands on her hips, smiled with pride, and a touch of innocence, and said, "I did :)". Classic. Grandpa couldn't be mad at her. One of the many good things about being cute, little, and female :) Grandpa is wrapped around her little tiny finger.
