hard workin' mulchers
I had all of my mulch on the drive way for a few weeks. I finally was able to plant my flowers and now was the time to actually lay the mulch out on the beds. I decided to hire the very people that I live with-- and I have to say, they were great little helpers.
I really want to say that they were working hard because I asked them to help me
but I know it was just because I promised to pay them....
either way, I was great to see them working so hard, and they enjoyed seeing that pile dwindle and dwindle.
check out the video :)

crazy sky
we were at soccer practice
the sky started getting darker, then we saw lightning
the weather sirens started blasting
so we decided to leave. The clouds were so weird. The wind stopped blowing. it was bright and sunny in one direction and pitch black in another. At the stop light I saw this strang cloud--- what you can not see is the tail cloud that is touching down from it... it was not rotating, but looked menacing enough for me!!! Then BOOM, out of no where teh HAIL started just pelting us. It was a lot (had to put the camera away and focus on driving and getting home safely) it was quarter and pea sized. We were only about 2 miles from the house and then the pouring rain started along with the hail blast... it was crazy. BUT we made it home safely. the windows remained in tact. The storm continued on its way--- and the hail picked up in size (to egg size) thankfully we did not have to deal with that.... Thank you Lord for keeping us all safe!!!!

sneaky kids
Ido not know what was going on. The kids both hung back a little on our walk home. Then they actually started talking to each other (only problem was it was too quiet for me to over hear :) ) They shared that they did NOT want me to hear what they were talking about/planning. I tried my best to "catch them in the act" but they were on to me.
