A rainy Saturday

They say "it never rains in Southern California" and for the past year or two, they'd be right. Not sure what is happening to the weather, but it is raining in Southern California today.

Today was supposed to be Joshua's first AYSO soccer game and picture day. He had been praying that it wouldn't rain, although Jon and I pointed out that farmers, plants, animals and all of us that live in this desert need the rain. So when I woke up at 6:00 this morning and heard the rain I started thinking of ways to defuse some of the disappointment. We had homemade cinnamon rolls for breakfast and right now Jon and Joshua are out playing in the rain. They even had the bright idea of getting the key to the jacuzzi so that after they are wet and cold (its 64 degrees) they can go get warmed up. This should give me an hour or so to pack a few more boxes.

Yep, we are proceeding with our plans to get a new pre-fab home. Great financing has come in through the company we are working with to get the new home, including a $30K credit for the old house. Not sure why a bank would offer us that, but we are very grateful. Next Saturday we'll be out at the factory picking out some of the specifics for our home.

Hope you all enjoy your Saturday whether you have rain or sun.
