Saturday we were supposed to be setting up a booth at the Festival of the Horse with the Youth Group to sell cards and bath salts...but the rains came down and the floods came up! It was actually a very sobering and sad time... there were two college students at UK swept away by the flood waters. So instead of spending the day at the Festival... the Hanks Gang... the WHOLE Hanks Gang was HOME. This has been the very first Saturday we have spent together as a family (in its entirety) since way before McCaleb came home. Tim has spent every Saturday this year working - either with Hi-Tech or at the church on the new Family Life Center. So despite the bad weather - and seriousness of the storm... it was actually a really wonderful day. We watched Mary Poppins. Ali and Rachel loved the movie and were giggling hysterically at Dick Van Dyke dancing with the penguins...although Ali rolled over a few times and said - "This is REALLY a long movie, Mommy." The girls played and played...they love McCaleb's cars and trucks. McCaleb loves their kitchen... and watching him feed the little beanie bear was really sweet. I'm not sure what happened to his pants...
