steve's birthday was last week........unfortunately the day began with water in the basement (again!!) and him vacuuming up the water before work........this storm fortunately wasn't quite as intense as the one earlier in march, but still enough to keep us sucking water every few hours for the next 2 days.......really this rain has got to stop!!........it's not just normal rain - we wouldn't get flooding in a normal rainstorm - these have been torrential rain for a couple days kind of storms - 8"+ of rain per storm!.......the kind of storm where the groundwater rises so high that water seeps in through cracks in our basement floor........and people are evacuated from their houses.......
anyway, enough about the rain!!......aside from the rain, steve's birthday went off pretty well......he got some good gifts (if i do say so myself!) - tickets to take casey to see sesame street live in mid-april, cinema pub gift certificate for he and i to have a "date night", some tools, a compost bin, and some clothes.......we were able to take a break from the vacumming to go to fire & ice for dinner - a cool restaurant where you pick out all your food and sauce, then bring it to a big round grill in the middle where they cook it for you while you watch.......the kids were great at dinner - although casey didn't really eat well - just had pickles and pineapple for dinner.......hey, what can you do right?.......
anyway, happy 42nd birthday to steve!.......
