Tropical Storm Emily

We just said goodbye to what was Tropical Storm Emily. It was not as threatening as it originally sounded. We received heavy rain today, but had no wind where we are.

At one point when it was raining very hard, I let the children go out and play in it. After they were done, they came in and got baths, and we had a "rainy day treat" of hot chocolate, coffee, and homeade cinnamon buns! It's not often we have "cool" days here, but with the rain system, today was one of them! It was in the 70's! The thermometer in our bedroom read 75 degrees and that felt cool.

Thank God for His guidance in this storm and that it wasn't as bad as it was predicted. We hope our friends on the other islands fare well also.

I hope I can post more soon. There never seems to be time to get everything done.
