Nature Center

Last month we had our roof replaced. They told us to expect the workers to show up at 7am. I was laying in bed, sound asleep when I heard some pitter-patter on the roof above me. I looked over at my clock seeing that it was 5am,...and thought, "You've got to be kidding me! those kids better not think it's time to wake up!" I rolled out of bed to investigate. All 4 kids were sound asleep in their beds. Still hearing movement up above. Kinda freaky. I made my way to the front window, pulled back the curtain to take a peek....the roofing crew had arrived! Are you serious?!?! Long story short,..I had to shuffle a few things around upstairs in the attic, when I came back down stairs I was now greeted by 4 children that were now awake, claiming there were loud noices on the roof. Tell me about it! By this time, it wasn't just walking around up there, they were actually starting to pound and scrape and who knows what else.
This is the view from my front window by about 7am when Nathan came home from work.

Since they were going to be working on the roof all day, and there was no way Nathan was going to get any sleep,. we decided to take an excursion up to the Nature Center in Memphis. The kids were fascinated that they got to be there for the snake feeding.
