wrapping up may

well, we had some nasty weather come through at the end of the month. a tornado touched down about 2 miles from our house....and some major flooding in the same day! it had been raining like crazy all day, and as I went to pick up the boys, I barely made it through some high water, just driving one mile to the school. I called Andy, and said, there's no way I'm going back through that...so he drove down to the park, and waited on the other side of the water for me to get Ian and Tysen. it took awhile to get the boys, and meanwhile, all entrances to our neighborhood closed because they were under water. so now, I couldn't leave the neighborhood to get Logan, and I couldn't even get home! Andy walked through the high waters (waist high) after, rescuing a little boy who tried to ride his bike through, and came to our side as we were still parked at the school. we ended up leaving our car at the school, and catching a ride from this guy who happened to be driving past us in this huge army truck! the boys thought it was pretty cool....one of our neighbors picked up logan from school, but they couldn't even get into our neighborhood until after 6pm, as so many roads in bryan were flooded. it was a crazy day!!!!

officially ending school with an ICECREAM EMERGENCY!! its hard to catch logan asleep since he stays up later, but he did go to bed, and we got them up at 9:30pm and ran for some emergency icecream....
we were driving to fort worth to celebrate Haley's graduation, and we made a quick stop to see the Spooners, since I had a few things to give her. it was only like 30 minutes...but it was so good to hold and play with Declan for a bit!
stayed the night in fort worth and had a fun dinner for Haley! of course, that morning, papaw and the boys went out for donuts...it was a quick visit, but fun to see everyone!
