rain rain go away and don't come back



so i don't really have anything to post about, but i was sick of looking at a picture of myself everytime i got onto blogspot to check on everyone else. this picture has nothing to do with what i'm about to post about but she is so beautiful that i thought i'd add something pretty to look at while i explain. luckily we aren't on the coast of texas and if we would have went to pt school in galveston we would be ringing out our sheets right now, another reason we are grateful we are in the pass. anyways...we did get to welcome dolly a couple of days ago. we had SO much rain. our street was pretty much a waterfall and no one here seems to know how to drive in the rain. everyone stays inside and won't leave until we only have a 10% chance of rain. so... the other morning when trent and i were driving home from the gym in the wee early hours trent decided it would be a real smart idea to roll down the window in my car on the drivers side to make sure that yes it was actually precipitaion that was causing the roads to flood and people to drive like maniacs. as soon as the window got ALL the way down one of our hombres flew past us and we got a car full. we busted up laughing! my car was soaked! the water was SO dirty and wet. obviously. luckily we had a towel from the gym to mop up some of the water as well as trents soaked face. what a dork my boy is. needless to say next time dolly comes into town we'll keep the windows rolled up. k trent!

Man that picture of Madi is SO dang cute! She has the prettiest eyes!
We have some friends that are moving to galveston next week, I hear they get a lot of hurricanes, how far away are you from there?
Hope you're staying dry (with your windows UP)and steer clear from all the hermanos driving like maniacs in the rain!
