Having a good time

The weather has been pretty good, hardly no rain since we've been here

Took the boys to Seattle on Saturday and up into the SpaceNeedle. They thought that was pretty cool. Been a long time since we've been up there so was great for us too.
It was a pretty nice day when we got to the Seattle Center, we were sitting at the great fountain and the boys were down in it seeing how close they could get without getting wet. It all of a sudden began to rain and we started for cover, by the time we got to some it was a downpour and so we were all quite wet. You could definitely tell who the out of towners were, the ones with no umbrella's. Although we were talking and we never had one when we lived here either so guess we wouldn't have had one either way. I almost bought one that day, but decided that would be a waste of money. Like buying a disposable one since I wouldn't need it at home. haha

Got back to our car before dark and found one of our windows missing. ARGH!
Glass everywhere, things thrown all over the back seat. And the only thing missing? My bible!!!! Imagine the surprise they got when they opened the case and didn't find money but a very nice bible with my name on it. I really liked that bible, had just gotten it for my last birthday. That was very upsetting but what does one do? Put a towel over it and drive home. THank God it had obviously happened after the rain and it didn't rain on the way back to Grandma's. Couldn't get someone out here till tomorrow to fix it so my poor car has been sitting all plastic and duct taped.

Tonight has been pretty quite around here. Played a game of scrabble with Grandpa and Grandma, I of course came in last!
Now Grandpa is off to bed, Grandma reading, the boys playing computer and I think Travis is headed off to bed so I better get off here.

Have a great week
