Thunder, Lightning, Raging Winds

Ok, that's a little dramatic.

We haven't had the raging winds.

But, we have had some pretty serious thunder & lightning.

I guess that's the kind of storm you get after 3 days of 95+ degree heat.

The cool front that comes through brings some wicked weather.

The girls keep asking if we'll lose power.

We're all still a little traumatized from the October storm.

At this point, I think the worst of the storms have gone by us.

And we still have power.

Fingers crossed it stays that way.

At least before the storms rolled in they were able to get in some swimming.

We did have plans tonight to meet some friends to go to a local winery.

On Friday nights, they have live music and you can set up shop on the grounds.

Bring a picnic dinner.  Buy a bottle of wine from the winerys' store.  Perfect summer evening.

It's lots of fun.

The kids get to play with friends for a few hours and the adults get to sample some wine.

It's a win/win for everyone.

Unfortunately, with the storms we have moved to Plan B.

And that includes everyone coming to our house.

Should be fun.

potd #172.  Took this pic of the girls with my phone.  They are passing the time playing a Cranium game.  Having lots of fun.  Just prior to this E beat me in a solid game of War.  Fun age to play board games and cards.
