Rain drops falling on my head...

I can't believe the rain we have been getting! This is one of the wettest monsoon seasons I can remember. The pictures are from Friday...one crazy storm with lightning, thunder, and rain. Our seasonal creek was flowing again. It was awesome. It feels like we live on a tropical island because the moisture and humidity is so high. Jeff put up gutters on the back part of our house, off the deck, to collect all this amazing rain water, and we have been loving it! Talk about money being saved. It feels so good to shower with rain water. I am so proud of Jeff; he is so handy.

Joshua and Samantha arrived for a visit late Friday night and stayed through this morning. We took them to the Grand Canyon because Samantha had never seen it before; and it is always a place Joshua likes to return to. After that we went to the Beaver Street Brewery for a good dinner. That night we played Monopoly, and Jeff and I dominated, of course. Don't mess with the Staffords!

P.S. Tomorrow is my Dad's birthday...so Happy Birthday Dad.
