It's raining ...

Our first winter storm is here ... well fall storm, I guess. I'm wondering how this winter is going to be with kids in the house every day. lol How long will grandma stay sane? The blend of these kids is interesting to say the least. I marvel sometimes at how different my approach is compared to how I raised my kids ... I wish I'd been more "mature" when I had my kids ... maybe I wouldn't have broken so many wooden spoons. hahaha

This weekend we're planning a trip to Moonrocks, a place outside of Reno with Emily and Mikaela and the toys. It's hard to stay hopeful with so much wind and rain though. This is a new place and there's not as much sand as Sand Mountain or Winnemucca so we won't need to borrow Lesley and Bryce's truck ... but all this rain could make it difficult if it turned the roads to mud. We're keeping our fingers crossed, that's for sure!

Here's what our front yard looks like ... good thing we have a canoe, eh?
