Rylee has become obsessed with juice. She really enjoys the V8 fusion, wasn't too sure about regular V8 at first, but finished it up later in the day. Pretty sure it had something to do with the fun can it came in!!
The boys decided to build an army of Lego's and had to move to Cody's room so the mean giant Rylee wouldn't destroy them!!! 
I've been trying to fix dinners in the crock pot and skillet because the oven and stove make the house so incredibly hot in the summer. Last night fixed potatoes and veggies in the crock pot and cooked pork chops in the skillet. It was yummy!! Logan, Justin, and Rylee ate a whole chop, Cody ate one and wanted another so had half of mine. Geez!!! Anyway, good stuff. After dinner we got ready to go to Logan's baseball game.
We were playing against a travelling tournament team, so we knew it was going to be tough. But MAN we started out awesome. Had them down 2 to 1 at the top of the 3rd! Logan hit an incredible ball to the outfield and had some really nice plays...and then they brought in a new pitcher. Yeeowwwza. I swear to he, he had to have been throwing 60 mph at least AND he could do a fast ball, curve ball and change up. It was pretty impressive but pretty much tore our confidence in half. Ended up losing, but that was nothing compared to when we got home.Drove up and there was this HUGE bird creature on the carport that flew away as soon as we drove up. It landed on the fence and just watched us get out of the car...real creepy like. Got inside and Logan got in the shower and the little ones got in the bath. Justin and I were talking when we heard "shoeeoooooowwwoooosoh" (Ok, something like that anyway) and then the water stopped running. Seriously, nothing was coming out of the faucet. HOLY CRAP...either our pump just went out or our well went dry. That ain't good. We went out to the well house to see if we could see anything wrong while Logan helped the kids get in their jammies.
The whole time I was standing outside the well house holding the light that big creepy bird creature was screeching at me. Seriously screeching, I kept looking over my shoulder waiting for it to suddenly appear and turn me into something else, pretty sure I wasn't going to be a vampire or a werewolf, but something just as horrible and undead. Justin came out of the well house and was the only one brave enough to shine the light on the creature...it was a...screech owl. Go figure. Seriously, that name may not have been the most clever, but definitely to the point, (Kind of clever like my old Teddy named "Teddy" and Amy's dog named "Doggy...clever children) who knew they actually screeched! Anyway, it was the coolest and scariest thing I've seen in a long time...and that's including the fox that was killed by a couple coyotes in the middle of the night by the basketball goal and my bedroom window in the front yard, and the herd of turkey vultures that ripped it to shreds yesterday.
Anywho...got inside from that adventure and called Uncle Mo for ideas. Yup, pretty sure it's the pump or well. Justin called a 24 hour plumbing company and they could be out after 3:00 this afternoon. (Personally doesn't sound very 24 hour to me but hey) Going to be interesting how we go through the day without water, glad at least 2 of the 4 of us can go outside to go to the bathroom. Anyway, I feel completely gross and disgusting and could really use a shower but don't think there's enough gallons of water at our Wal-Mart to make that happen.
So that was our night, good times. Hope you guys are all having a super great week. It's Wednesday!!!!! Woohooo! Love and miss you all!
