Round Rock gets over 11 inches of rain over the past 5-7 days.
This must be some kind of record, especially for July. Wow!

More Rain!!!
Who knew? We have now had several days of rain in a row in July. The news here said that we got 4 inches today. All I can say is Wow...July is NEVER like this in Texas. We are grateful for the nice green lush lawns and for the water that we so desperately need. The storms did take out our computer, phone, and internet for about 24 hours yesterday and today. We've had some pretty impressive thunder and lightening.

Jessica says Nana!
It is true! Yesterday I was out with my daughter and her three kids. Jessica, now 7 months, when Jessica said "Hi Nana". It surprised me so much that I said, "Did she say what I thought she said" and sure enough she repeated it several times. How fun! Jessie now knows Hi, Mom, and Nana! How awesome to be in the Top Three. She is the most adorable little Touch Me Not. Yep, it is true that she is a Mommy's girl but she will break away just long enough to give you a big hug and kiss then it is back to mom. What an adorable grandbaby!

Rain in July?
Yep. it's true. We have had a couple of whopper rain, thunder, and lightening storms the past two days. So unusual for Texas. July and August are always our hottest months without the tender mercy of water. We are grateful for the water and grateful the the storm wasn't too violent! The grass will be unusally green for this time of year. : )

Michael lands a job!
It has been quite a summer for Michael. He really worked hard at getting a job, filling out applications, calling, and showing up about everywhere that we could think of. He finally resorted to going to a place called Labor Finders at 5:30 each morning at hopes of landing a job for the day. It was a coin toss on the sucess rate but since there weren't other options...it was a blessing. Thursday he was called by another Temp Agency that he had an application in at and they told him that he had a 40 hour a week job for the next 40 days. The job is Stocking Shelves at a Georgetown Walmart. We are grateful for any job and grateful that he will be able to earn money for next year's college.

PAPA
The kids and grandkids were all over to the house for dinner this evening. The grandkids haven't been here much since Craig's shoulder surgery and the grandkids were talking about Papa's arm being in a sling. My favorite comment of the evening was when Maddie told Dallin.."Since Papa fell off the ladder he won't be able to fix the world." Out of the mouth of babes! Love you Maddie.
