What do you do with a rainy day?

We make MONSTER COOKIES!!! Yummy. With rainy weather we ususally make some sort of cookies, and a few weeks back we got to make Monster cookies! The kids loved doing it, but didn't get the concept that we wern't putting Monsters in it, and there weren't Monsters coming to eat them! But my little monsters LOVED them! :)


You also head out to Grandpa's (my dad's) house to check cows before the BIG storms come in! Which is just what we were headed to do, it was lightning and thundering, and the kids couldn't help watching for the "thunders". Which is just what we did tonight before the big storm, tornados and all!


(okay mom I know what you're thinking....why aren't those kids buckled!?!? They usually are when we go to dad's but yeah right they were too into looking at the storms!!!!!!!! It's about 5 miles round trip from our house to dad's!)

And what do you find when you come back from helping your grandparents get to the basement??? This is what I found!

They were sitting under the stairs, taking shelter from the Tornados that came through the state! It was a scary time, but everyone is okay, and we didn't get much but a bunch of rain, and some pea sized hail!

And then there is Dahrran aka MR WEATHER MAN! He loved looking at the radar on the computer, and kept saying "it's okay, we're okay". MacKenzie on the other hand kept asking where Texas was....um....(she still wants to go back to the Ocean!)..we'll get there before you know it!
Now that you've seen what we do with our rainy days, what do you do with yours?
