Flood

Saturday morning it was raining pretty hard as friends started to arrive for a baby shower. We thought it was just another storm that would soon end and leave the skies blue and sunny, but it just kept raining. As the baby shower was ending we started to hear sirens. It was not just fire trucks. It was the tornado sirens in town. They went off three times that day. Soon there was flood warnings, and roads were being closed. My friends tried returning to their families. The last friend left at five and returned home at 6:45 pm. The rain continued through Sunday. We live on a hill, so our home was spared. We are so thankful and blessed. I felt very loved and covered in prayer as many friends, neighbors and family called, emailed and text to see how we were. Here are some pictures from the flood.

Hair day

Cameron was up early one morning, so I did her hair. This helped keep her quiet for the rest of the family and was quite fun.

5 months

Roland is 5 months old. He loves to jump. He is now eating rice cereal, has two teeth, and is rolling over both ways. Roland is truly a blessing and we can not imagine life without him and we can barely remember life before him.

Garden

We planted our Garden again. This time a little more organized. We labeled rocks the kids painted so we would know what we planted.

Janis' Wedding

I got to be in one of my dearest, and oldest friends wedding while in CA. We got pedicures and manicures and had a great time hanging out and getting ready for the big day.

Grandma

We visited my Grandma while we were in Ca. We do not get to see her that often and she is 86 years old. We had a nice time. Cameron did a show for her and Hewson explored a little (which is something I loved to do when I was little). Unfortunately we did not see my Grandpa, who is 95, He was still sleeping.

Visiting TN friends in CA

Some of our dearest friends moved from TN to CA. I know, this is very ironic. Gabe and Elisa moved over a year ago and had us over for an amazing brunch. Aimee and Jason moved a little over two months ago, and we also go to spend time with them. We miss you all very much. Thank you for a sweet, relaxing day. The kids also had fun playing with all of Amani's toys.
