a summer storm...

when you live in the desert- you really appreciate days without sun and the exceedingly rare rain. last night we were treated to a summer storm with thunder and lightning- it was really great! today we got a break from the sunshine with a cloud cover that has been around all day- BLISS!

we here at mooklettes are feeling exceedingly lazy- still housework is getting done, meals are being prepared and some of us are getting really good at rock band!

from our carmel getaway...

restless

it is a beautiful day in the neighborhood! once again, i am blogging from the back patio and enjoying winter sunshine...
i keep changing the layout and colors- they are making me discontent-whatever!
we now have an eleven year old
and a baby who can wear pigtails!
also, apparently, a child old enough to date, even if we aren't ready
