We are home this weekend. last weekend we helped paint the house and Josh and dad got the sprinkler system up and running correctly. It was so hot it was almost unbearable. we didn't get as much done this last weekend but it looked tons better! I did take some pictures but I will put them up later.
Last week we had a heat wave. we don't have air conditioner so it was Hot in and out of the house. I had to get a fan out and spray the kids down with water and the would run in front of the fan to cool off. It was 107 one of the days! I am glad that the weather has tamed down again. The breeze that we have had this week was nice too.
we have been riding the train up to pleasanton where Josh works. the train is the commuter train we have here. the kids love it. Last weekend we rode the train and got to the station and rode the elevator down from the the plat form the doors were glass that the kids were pressed up against them waving Hi to daddy as we rode down the elevator. When we hit the bottom the doors started to slid open and I hear a blood curdling scream from one of my little ones. I look down and Brandon is standing at the door opening and I look and I thought he caught his hand in the door he didn't....then I hear the scream louder as the doors opened up a little more. Ella didn't noticed the doors opening and with her hands on the door it open and took her hand into the opening off the door with it jamming the door partially open with s stuck inside. I dropped my bag and tugged at her hand it was in there tight! I tried to find a door close button and started pushing it. Her had was in there so tight that it wouldn't shut. I tried to pull it again and it was so stuck. all the sudden this lady reaches around me ( mind you there were three people in there yelling at me the whole time freaking out Ella!) so she reaches around and Yanks her hand out... She didn't think that she could shred her hand or break her fingers. She then tells the lady working there that it wasn't in there tight...I tried to yank it out 2 times and it wasn't coming out for me!!! When I told her that it was to tight for me she realized that she panicked and ripped her hand out of a tight situation. I was really mad when she sis it. In the middle of the the Brandon Ran off and some lady grabbed him and took him to Josh Who stood there Frozen Not sure What to do!
So after all that we got her out and checked her hand that was a little red and slightly puffy from being stuck...she was crying hard from being so scared. she ended up being just fine. We Ran off to the Jelly Belly factory and took a tour of the facility.. you get to see the workers working on making Candy while you walk above them them working, Ella loved it and wants to go again...she was so happy to get the free jelly beans at the end.
So after all that we are just Glad to be relaxing at home this weekend!!!
