What a crazy week!!!!

Ok, so this week is Josiah's 4th birthday. My family all lives in Missouri and have never missed one of the kiddos big days. Wouldn't you know this would be the week that they have a record flood only to be outdone in 1993. My mom called me frantic on Tues. morning to tell me that the basement that they had just redone was filling with water. This was the day they were to make the 8 hour drive to Tx to hang out with the boys before the party on Sat. Needless to say, they have spent the last 64 hours battling the water. Just a testament to my parents and thier love for the boys,nothing come hell or high water (HaHa) will not stop them from a big day such as Josiah's birthday. So, Josiah did his happy dance today knowing that Nana, Papa, and aunt Rachel are on there way.





Just a funny side note, I called my mom to see how far they had gotten and she told me that my dad had heard they were going to close the main interstate that they needed to get here today. So if you know my mother she can have a lead foot(HaHa),so determined to get here today,she drove 80 miles an hour to beat the road closing. She said that the signs were up and the water was a road level, but she made it though. The Greenes will arrive tonight to go to the Dallas Zoo and to party on Sat.
