40 Days and 40 Nights







Doesn't it look like all the grown-ups took a nap and sent the children out to play in the ocean?  Have fun kids, call you when dinner's ready!


  
 

 That's not exactly what happened.  We made Lane carry the baby monitor so we could still hear them.  The weatherman must not have gotten THE memo requesting sunshine because after Monday, anybody venturing outside risked instant drowning.  And not by ocean waves, by humongous and unrelenting raindrops and hurricane force winds.  So we came up with indoor fun.  Avery freshened up and then took advantage of the free time to balance her checkbook.


Ian practiced pinching faces.  He got quite good at it.
 



Some of the kids just went with jumping.  








Then it was drive-in movie time.  First everybody had to build their wheels.
 



 Then the concession stand.  What's a movie without goodies?

















With gas being so expensive they decided to go with an alternative fuel.








Landgon and Lane just used the time to catch up on some really good stories.  Did you know Grandpa Dude can get Thomas the Train on his Kendle?  I think Ian was off somewhere practicing his cheek pinching.  Yes, Bre, I think that's a marshmellow in his hand but for the record, I didn't give it to him.

Thanks Awesome Family.
