Bubble baths, black eyes and storms...

It's been a crazy weekend! Just when you think that you can get all of this work done around the house, Mother Nature decides to step in and put a stop to it! Ah well, we had fun anyhow... Well, Karissa has finally decided that she is not scared of bubbles in her bath anymore... so after 2.5 years, she had her first bubble bath - and therefore, so did Chloe! As you can see, they had a lot of fun!
Karissa liked blowing the bubbles off of her hands. I guess it looks pretty cool!
This is a toy chest that I got at a garage sale not that long ago. I finally moved it from the garage to Karissa's room. It is a great new toy for the girls, and a great new storage thing for the toys!

Karissa was outside "helping" Joel last weekend, and he got a great shot of her in the weeping birch in our front yard.
Ah yes, more war wounds... this was the work of a flying caulking gun. Joel said "Just toss it here!" instead of letting the guy walk around the stuff that was in the way to bring it to Joel. The tube in the gun was full, so the rod out the back was fully extended and that's what hit Joel in the eye. The kicker is, the rod actually bent from hitting Joel's head - that's how hard his head is!!!!
Crazy Sunday rain storm! I think this is the hardest it has ever rained as long as we've lived out here. There was a lot of hail, as well. It started out with just thunder and lightening, then the heavens opened and down came the rain! The pool we have in the backyard for the girls was empty, but after the storm had almost as much water in it as I would fill it for them to play in!
The street in front of our house was a lake! The ditch across the street was overflowing and you couldn't even see part of the road!
I don't think this car realized just how much water there was on the road... oops!
