Hail

We were thinking of starting a new moving company today - instead of two guys and a truck, it'd be "A Guy, a Little Girl and a Truck." Madison was very helpful today with loading up things in Ye-Ye's truck as we transported it from the old house to the new house.

She found empty boxes, and filled them with items she wants moved. Then she'd carry these boxes to the truck and tell Daddy with confidence: "New House." Yes, Madison, that's going to the new house.

If there was anything that looked too heavy for Daddy, she's be right there to help "carry it." Sometimes, this would slow us down a bit - but how can you resist help like this? Answer: you can't!

It was here at the old house, however, that the sky unleashed a huge thundershower that brought a deluge of water down upon us. We sat in the garage, marveling at the spectacle of nature outside. Suddenly, ice began to fall from the sky: it was hail!

This is Madison's first significant encounter with hail: Daddy would dart out of the garage to pick up some of the small chunks of ice to bring back to Madison.

"Ice!" Madison shouted.

Fortunately, the storm didn't bring any trouble. The rain poured down though, and it somewhat limited the rest of the day as to what we could do - so, it was movie night again!

That's right, we popped the popcorn and snuggled down in bed for the big premiere of "Tinkerbell and the Great Fairy Rescue." When Madison saw we had this movie, she actually turned to Mommy and said, "thank you!" She was so focused on the screen during the movie, and there were plenty of times where we were just watching her watch the movie. She was so cute sitting there, so intense! Family movie night was very nice tonight in the big bed. Soon, we'll be snuggling in the new living room on our great big, comfy couch.
