Rained Out!

Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes you get rained out!!! That's what happened to us today! The morning was nice and uneventful after my workout and swimming lessons. The younger two had naps and Josiah and I had some time together to build and do school and read. After Jacob and Callie woke up, we were off to the pool! Literally as soon as they got out of the van, the thunder rolled and heavens opened up in a downpour!!! The boys were quite bummed, but we survived the trauma. I told them that perhaps tomorrow we would try and swim after lessons rather than wait until the afternoon. After having an early dinner, we headed to pick up our pictures we had taken yesterday. We walked into the mall and were quite a sight - both boys were carrying an umbrella and I had Callie in her seat and an umbrella. I'd have taken a picture of all of us marching through the storm, but I had no extra hands!!! It was quite an event. Other than that, the evening was nice and uneventful. Jacob got to talk with Daddy tonight, and I was able to talk with my sister Kim (new baby Matthew is doing great and eating like a horse!) and my sister Kristen (the one in Bolivia on a missions trip - she was calling to check on Kim). All is well!!! :)
