the calm before the storm

We are continuing to watch the news and Harvey has made his way from Tropical Storm to Hurricane.

We've got a generator, water, ice, bread,

and a lot of bourbon and wine.

We've downloaded some things for the girls on the iPads,

and made sure that everything from the yard is safe in the garage.

But today was the calm before the storm.

My girls weren't calm,

but the weather was surprisingly nice.

We spent more than 10 minutes outside.

That hasn't happened in a while.
