NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS

Nothing new is happening here regarding the flooding. Same stuff...limit water usage & pray for dry weather. There is no rain in our forecast until Thursday, which is great news. Let's hope it stays that way.

Allie had ball today & both kids had swimming. Jake spent the night at a friend's house last night. Scott was in Vegas on business so it was just me & Allie.

We have swimming every night this week, baseball and softball games for both kids, Scout camp, hopefully a waterpark trip (or 2). I'm also hoping baby Drew makes his way into the world this week. I'm already planning different scenarios to get back to meet him.

I will stop the daily posts unless something changes. Thanks again for the emails & calls. It is amazing to us how many people checked in on us...from Texas, Illinois, California, Kansas, Missouri and of course Iowa...people checked in...THANKS!!

Who Am I??

*I have been married to my wonderful hubby since June 1996. We are still in love. He is the perfect husband and father. He works so hard for us & provides us with everything we could ask for. He is amazing!
