Keeping Busy



Today our mission was to keep busy and stay busy. Today Hurricane Irene made landfall in NC and made her way up the coast and pretty much stalled directly over Virginia Beach. Yep, stayed over us forever!

So, instead of staying in front of the tv and watching the news online, we went to the Discovery Kids Science Center...again. Mike, Nana and I took the girls and it was great that we took turns doing things. It was busy but definitely manageable.

The girls also went and picked veggies in the garden and had fun running around the house after Molly and Maci.

We were in contact with our neighbors throughout Irene's visit and had updates from Trish too! Thankfully, our house only lost power for a few hours on Saturday which is unbelievable! Our house looses power in thunderstorms and stays out for hours upon hours!

Mike and I kept saying all day how happy we were that we left. We couldn't imagine being at home with the girls watching and listening to the strong winds and the never ending rain. Thanks Nana and Pa for putting up with us for a few more days!

Well I think you have already gotten your money's worth from your membership! I want one! :) And, Emma looks SO old in that picture at the bottom. Can't believe it. Glad you got to do this instead of pace in the storm.
