That's not what I want to hear at 10 o'clock...

"Mommy, I love you..."
Fully expecting that once he was in bed he would stay there (yes, I know, very foolish of me), I was surprised to hear my "little angel" awake. I thought to just send him back to bed, but when i glanced up I noticed a slightest tinge of pink on his face. My first thought was my makeup kit in the bathroom. Sure enough I proceeded down the hall and found this.
Got to the bathroom and discovered this...
and this...
and this.
Grrrrrr!
I had been pleased that the apartment was freshly cleaned as the RS presidency was visiting the next night. Best laid plans and all....
Last week:
We got in a bit of rain, a little wind, and some slightly damp laundry...
Dallas enjoyed the rain, and I visited with our upstairs neighbor whose children are near Dallas' age. This was facilitated by the fact that we were out of power and the interiors were too dark to do anything in. The power was off from 4pm-11pm, ugh, but Dallas had lots of fun playing with the other kids and was thoroughly soaked and very pleased about it. Unfortunately, there was still power at Josh's work, so he didn't get to stay home with us.
We are looking forward to having many more such encounters with Mother Nature, as the monsoons have only started and should continue for the next couple months (oh yay!), meanwhile the temperatures remain in the triple digits and we've been very grateful for our a/c, especially the fact that it hasn't quit on us as so many have this summer already.
May your weather be cooler and drier than ours:)
