The Tuesday after Memorial Day started out totally unexpected. After a night full of rain and flooding in many areas of Houston I woke up to a phone call from the school district at 5:45 am. I didn't answer it because I couldn't figure out what was going on. I rolled over to find Zak wasn't in bed which meant he had slept on the couch. I looked at my phone and had a text message from the school district and one from Amber saying school was canceled. I was SHOCKED! What had happened last night?!?!? When I went to bed I knew things were a bit crazy because Beck and Allen had a lot of flooding in their area but I had taken a benadryl, because of my itchy mosquito bites, and I just couldn't stay up.
So, in a bit of a panic I got up to find the TV blaring and Zak fast asleep on the couch. I knew he'd been up really late because the tv hadn't gone into sleep mode. I started to watch the news and saw just how much rain we had. Thankfully our area was fine but other areas weren't. I immediately thought of my sister. Thankfully the water never made it in their house. Had she lived in the house she was in just 6 months ago, her car would have been under water! Chase was up very early but Colt slept till about 8:30. When he woke up I told him he should be getting on the bus right now. He was so confused. When I told him school was cancelled he was over the moon.
I had Chases first dentist visit scheduled and since our area was in good shape we loaded up Colt and headed out. Chase did such a great job. He was very quiet but loved the dentist. He had chocolate tooth paste and birthday cake florid. He was cavity free and got a good bill of health!
We relaxed a little at home and added a few new games to the iPads then spent the afternoon enjoying the sun and snow cones!
