Worst Baby Halloweeen Costume

Dear God, Please give California a break…

First the fires. I mean, that was fun and all. Millions of peo­ple in San Diego and Los Angles were kept on their toes for days and days.

Oh, then there was that boo­ming thun­der we expe­rien­ced two days ago as the kids, Hubby and I (really just Hubby) car­ved pump­kins. Poor eClaire shot from the garage into the house like a bullet. She screa­med a gut­tu­ral warrior cry I’ve never heard come out of something so young.

And then last night there was that silly old earth­quake you sent our way. You know the one! So.… what?  You say… it was only a 5.6 on the rich­ter scale?  Well, let me tell you, we felt every 5 and point 6 of it, living where we do.

My heart raced, Hubby sca­led the couches, I broke the com­pu­ter cord all in an attempt to get to the kids bedroom before the world came crashing down.

In hind­sight we might have ove­rreac­ted just a bit, because everything tur­ned out to be fine.

But come on God, please give us a break for a week or so before you send the locust our way!

Love,

Smi­ling Mom

Evacuation Orders Lifted For My Family

Dear Inter­nets,

My parents are hea­ding home.  My brother’s family is also home.  I am brea­ting a big sigh of relief right now.  Thanks for all your well wishes.

San Diego Family Update

My parents were just eva­cua­ted ear­lier this mor­ning.  Since my parents were eva­cua­ted, I assume that my cou­sin was as well, since she lives very near my parents.  My mom and dad are hea­ding to my brother’s house, which ama­zingly has not been eva­cua­ted.  His family, daugh­ters and wife have left the house and are at my sis­ter in law’s aunt’s house.  Jeff keeps hiking the hill behind his house to see how close the fla­mes are.

Many, many friends that our family knows have lost their houses.

No one, that we know of, are inju­red.  Please pray for everyone’s safety.
