Findley Family: Crazy Crap

I know it is a classy title, moving on:

We are getting super excited to see the fam in just about 2 weeks! So excited, in fact, we shook all of Oklahoma (hardy...har...har...**cough** -old man joke-).

Yes, we had 3 earthquakes in 2 days. It was a little unnerving (ok, kind of a lot), and I had no idea that they were so scary even when they don't cause damage. I have to say, though, the one on Saturday had me about ready to wake Link up to hide under the table :) It is funny because people out here don't really know what to do because they didn't have a billion earthquake drills a year in Elementary school like we did. Good thing Matt and I are here to show them the way!

All-in-all, it has just been very exciting to say the least. In fact, Matt and I tallied up all the natural disasters that have happened since we have been here:

Tornadoes
Earthquakes
Floods
Microburst
Hottest month EVER in US history
Worst ice storm they have ever had
Hail storm (they were as big as softballs in some places, lucky we have a garage now!)

Good thing they don't have mountains or I would think a volcano erupting would be next. I am starting to think us being here is causing it, are you sure you guys want us to move back? We might bring it all with us :)

Good times :) Besides the earthquakes, we are actually doing awesome this month. But I have to share a "Link is so cute" story:

We walked into Kohl's (my girl friends and I) and this little old lady in a wheelchair, with her husband beside her, saw Link and said "what a handsome little man you have", and as I was saying "Thank you", Link walked over to her to give her a kiss, and then a HUGE hug. It was so sweet, and she absolutely loved it. He sure already knows how to work the ladies :) He has such a sweet heart, I hope he always remembers to care about others.

And that's all folks :)
