We just had an unexpected rain and hail storm come through. We had stood there watching for a good amount of time and I was even the good Mommy and braved the weather to go out and collect hail for the kids to see. We discussed how this was God's way of watering all the plants outside. I finally decided it was time to make lunch but Alec was still standing at the back door watching the rain soak our backyard and I heard this...
Alec, very softly, "Thank you God!"
Me, "What are you thanking God for Sweetie?"
Alec, "Because he is filling up my water table for me!"
His play water table was just outside and sure enough, I looked outside and it is about half full already! So sweet!

Privacy
As you have noticed since you are reading this, I have now put my bog to private. I have been thinking about doing this for a while as a protection to my family but the decision was truly made this week. Adam left on Sunday for Maryland to attend a FBI training class about Internet predators. As of our conversation last night he was only one day into the class, but he already was sharing with me about the CRAZY people out there who pray on little bloggers such as myself and use them as for their own "special" entertainment. Yuck.
I have to say, there have been plenty of times where I have held back on sharing something or telling a certain story because of the general public seeing it, but now there is just NO holding back!! Wow, is that a good thing? Maybe not. :)
I am sitting here writing this blog while procrastinating doing my report for my church council meeting tonight. With my meeting tonight, Adam being out of town, Aaron being sick again with a sinus infection, and a calendar FULL of future events I am a tad overwhelmed at the moment. The one wonderful thing is that I am heading off to CHICAGO next weekend to meet up with many of my Moosejulie friends for the very first time. I can't tell you how excited I am about going!! I know the weekend is going to go WAY too fast!
Alright, back to work, but thanks for being my faithful readers. I promise to get back on track and make this a more entertaining blog to look at! :)

Aaron's first Angels game
Ok, so I was caught up on pictures for a while...then what happens? I get all behind and have to catch up once again. Go figure!
On April 17th we had Angels tickets through Adam's work. We decided that since they were family friendly seats we would go ahead and take Aaron to his first baseball game. LOTS of food was consumed, LOTS of fun was had, but not much baseball was watched I am afraid.
One of the really fun things of the night was that it was Mike Soiscia bobble head night. Both Alec and Aaron were SO excited that they got a prize just for going to the game. I truly don't know what happened, but 4 of us attended the game but we somehow walked out of the stadium with 5 bobble heads. Weird. Guess I had better watch them closely at home and and make sure they don't start reproducing themselves here! ACK!
We had a great time and made it just through the 7th inning stretch before heading out. Not even sure if the Angels won that night or not, but either way, we had a blast! Congratulations Aaron on your right of passage into the "Angels Club" We look forward to many more games with you!
