We had a really bad storm about a month or so ago where 2 tornados came through our area (I didn't know that there were tornados at the time, and I was out in the wind and rain chasing down our runaway trampoline and garbage cans. Note to self: check weather before leaving the house when it gets that bad again). Our street had a lot of trees down and some damage to houses. Luckily, we didn't have any major damage (just a power outage and some tree limbs down), or so we thought. After a few days Wyatt started developing a cough and when we were in his room it smelled funny. At first we thought that Schnoz, one of our cats, had peed on something again (he pees on our stuff periodically), but after Ryan investigated a little more, he found that Wyatt's room had mold/mildew in it from flood water. So, we had to move Wyatt out of his room to clean it up. Ryan decided that we needed to completely rip out Wyatt's room and waterproof the walls to prevent water from getting back in again. So we removed everything from Wyatt's room and the playroom, knocked the wall in between down, and made it a storage area. Wyatt was a big help to daddy as he was waterproofing.

Visit with Uncle Geoff
Uncle Geoff came home this weekend for a visit and it worked out perfectly because Ryan and I were supposed to play in a softball tournament, so we went down to Grandma Bobbie's on Friday afternoon. Unfortunately, the tourney got rained out, but we still had a nice visit with Uncle Geoff and went to the playground at our old Elementary School and then to a Brazillian Steakhouse (where Wyatt kept throwing things on the floor and screaming, and we forgot the backpack with Parker's milk at home so Ryan had to go to CVS to get some. Uncle Geoff said this is why he isn't having kids!). But how can you say that after looking at these cuties!

BBQ with the Oliphant & Hodge Families
We had the Oliphant family and the Hodge family up for a bbq at our house. The kids had a great time playing in the backyard and in the inflatable bouncer and the adults had a fun time chatting and catching up. It is a shame we don't live closer. We need to get together again soon!
