Wow! What a hail storm!



Here's looking down our street, the fire trucks had just left after trying to unclog the storm drain.

Here's Aaron's truck, he was cringing while watching the hail come down -another reason why we're building the garage next year.  Surprisingly enough I don't think his truck was damaged.  Two years ago we had some siding replaced due to another huge storm.



The birthday party was LONG and LOUD! But, a success none the less. Alex got some awesome gifts from his playmates and everyone had a fun time playing games and kicking balloons around (that was the most exciting game). 



We have company coming tonight and then we're off to Calaway Park tomorrow morning, Sunday we're hosting Alex's birthday BBQ and then Monday I'm taking the boys to the zoo so Aaron can stockpile some sleep for our all nighter flight.  I usually only sleep for 6 hours/night so I figure if I can sleep most of the Calgary/Toronto flight then I'll be okay. (Providing the boys also sleep on the flight, hence the afternoon zoo trip to wear them out..hopefully we can keep them awake until we leave though.)



Today I only have 1 dayhome boy for the entire day and another for 2 hours so his parents can pack un-assisted.  And they're all 3 so for now they're playing in Alex's room which is a really big treat for them because Joseph and Alex have non-dayhome toys in their bedroom toy boxes.Grandma's taken Joseph to Zoo Camp and is picking up Alex for a trip to the zoo as well. It's so quiet around here it's almost like today's Day One of summer holidays!

I saw the storm on TV and was thinking about you guys. Wow, that is crazy!! It is cool that you got some pictures of it though. We've been having violent weather around here to lately. Not as bad as that but it has been really rainy with a lot of thunder and lightening.

See you soon. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
