Caleb's Dragon Bank!

Daddy decided that he wanted to make Caleb a piggy bank. Reuben's dad has plans already drawn up for different animals like an elephant, panda bear and other animals. Reuben asked Caleb which one he wanted and he said um....DRAGON! We didn't have any plans drawn up for this one so he had to go draw some up. Caleb was so excited that he was getting a dragon bank. So, last night we sat out in Reuben's dad's shop and made this dragon bank for Caleb. We had to wait for the glue to dry so this morning Reuben sat down and painted it. Caleb was sooooo excited to get it. Caleb's been going all around the house finding pennies to stick in bank.

The Calm After the Storm

On Friday we got a really big storm that came through. Here in Payette we got lightning, thunder, rain and wind. The wind really kicked up and it was one strike right after another. Well, in Ontario and Fruitland it got even worse. There was hail the size of good sized marbles, and some that were reported as big as golf balls. I'm really glad that we didn't get hail because it would have ruined my peaches and my garden. But anyway, when things were starting to calm down I started to play the piano and I looked over out the window and saw this sunset. It was incredibly bright. So, enjoy the pictures.
