Rain, Rain go away....

Houston has seen rain every single day since the summer started. I don't remember one day that it has not rained. It definitely has rained every day since we've had Magnum. He doesn't even know what a dry yard feels like. Even if we get sunshine it will rain at some point during the day.

At least one night a week we wake up to Thunder that sounds like our house is falling down. Steve and I just looked at the forecast and we of course are forecasted to have thunderstorms for the next 10 days.

Of course our gutters don't work properly and we have water dripping at the entrance of our back door. It's causing the door frame to rot. We had someone come out and quote us yesterday on replacing the gutters, so hopefully we'll get that issue fixed soon.

One thing the constant rain has done is it has turned our backyard into our own private jungle. It looks beautiful out there but it's swarming with mosquitos! Everytime we go out to take the pups out for a potty break we are swarmed with mosquitos! The pups won't stay out too long anymore because they can't stand the mosquitos swarming them.

Anyway just to give you a picture of what our yard looks like, we've posted a few pictures that I took this morning.

It's official...I'm an adult!

Yep that's right I turned the big 3-0 on Friday. My Aunt Gloria and Aunt Bonnie both called and wished me a happy birthday and said it made them feel old that I was actually 30 now. My Aunt Gloria actually said she cried all day on the day she turned 30. I told her I have not gotten to that point yet. I still have too many things to accomplish (like having babies) to feel too old yet. And just to prove the pressure is on..I got the following e-mail from my 9 year old niece Kennedee today:

Subject: Babys

I will admit that I did go out and stock up on eye cream and firming lotion! I have also resigned to the fact that I will actually have to work to keep my butt in the same place as it was in my 20's. I hate the gym, but I know I will have to build a stronger relationship with the elliptical machine and the leg press. My dad also called and said he felt REALLY old now.

Anyway my great husband planned a little get together for me at The Tasting Room on Saturday night to celebrate. I was not in the mood to go out bar hopping or do any of that crazy stuff you do in your 20's! haha. I had all of my good friends and most of my cousin's there to celebrate with me. Here are a few pictures from the event:
