Jenny and Tyler got home today right as a storm hit. (Tyler even asked the bus driver to pull right up to our house so he wouldn't get so wet. WHAT A NUT!) They ran in the house as fast as they could, and I decided today was probably a good day for hot, fresh chocolate chip cookies right out of the oven for an after-school-snack. We listened to the loud cracks of thunder and watched the rain pour down while the cookies baked. The power flashed off a few times during the storm and we wondered if we were going to loose our power. When they cookies were done, Tyler suggested that we light a candle and pretend that the power went out. Jenny pulled out some "campfire songs" and we sang a little "John Jacob Jinglehimer Schmit" while we ate our yummy snack. There's nothing like being a little crazy every once in a while!
There's something about a storm that just makes you want to snuggle up with those you love. It was fun!

what a fun afternoon i could go for some hot cookies by candle light only one problem my little monkeys would be fighting over who could blow it out fastest, dam.
That was quite a storm. The down pour was kind of fun and the smell was the best. Glad Ty had the bus driver give him front door service.
Wish I still lived next door to you I would have loved the cookies and candles. It is so wonderful to connect with you!!!!I love to know about your lives.
