Monsoons! The monsoon season, our summer rainy season, has arrived early this year, and we spend a lot of time talking about it, as well as experiencing it. Here is a picture of a storm from our front yard. We watch our local news channel, KOLD for their sky tracker weather and we have learned a lot of monsoon facts and figures from our favorite weatherman, Chuck George. None of us can remember the exact statistic as to why, but our monsoon season officially began last Wednesday, and it has rained every day except one since then, although not as much as we would like. Still everyone says this is a good sign, and it is beautiful to watch the storms roll in and the lightning storms. Brazzie hates the thunder, Bella really couldn't care less! We'll keep you posted on the monsoons, as well as whether we get up the nerve to invite Chuck George (who Karen met in our favorite local bar the other night) over for a bbq to further explain the monsoons and other weather wonders to us!

We had our own monsoon yesterday in Rochester, 3.3 inches of rain in one day, unheard of! Hope you are staying dry :)
