Before supper tonight Kenton was on the couch reading a book. The next time I looked Ethan had climbed up and was looking at a truck book. The peaceful scene lasted about another 30 seconds before Ethan began using his book as a weapon...SIGH! Ethan also threw a ball out of our fourth story window...He threw it and came running over to where I was sitting and looked at me with very wide eyes. The next thing I knew I could hear BOUNCE, bounce, bounce four stories down. The turkey KNEW that he wasn't supposed to do that!!!

Around 4:30 this afternoon we had a storm roll in. I have always loved the way the sky looks and the feel of the air cooling down and the distant rumbles of thunder proceeding an incoming storm. I also wanted to show my bougainvillea...when I returned home from the summer it wasn't doing very well with only a few leaves on it. After putting it in a bigger pot and fertilizing it I was surprised one morning with a multitude of blooms! It still has a way to go with the recovery (it's supposed to be covered in leaves) but I figure we've made a good start! Anyone who knows me well knows that I do NOT have a green thumb and I tend to kill most anything that I try to grow. It's a miracle that my children have survived as long as they have....:)
