Fortunately we live on the high end of our subdivision, up on a hill, but the other end is in a flood plain, which we've never seen flooded until now! Both entrances to the subdivision are so flooded that cars can't get through. This is one entrance, right behind our house but down a hill...
On the end street farthest from us we watched a guy walk out into his front yard in mid-thigh water! Check out the mailbox, it's about to be under water!
This is the other entrance to our subdivision. Two cars stalled trying to come and go and had to be towed. A firetruck blocked things off for a while. If your here in a car you literally can't leave! And if your not here yet, don't plan on getting home tonight! 6th Street is very flooded too!
The worst part... the rain isn't stopping any time soon. If Brant hadn't been home this afternoon I wouldn't have been able to leave to get the kids from school! Fortunately his Jeep is tall, but if it keeps rising he won't even be able to get out!
And to end the day, I thought I would go ahead and throw in one more little beautiful lady in the mix. Charli is absolutly loving all the trips to the parks in the area. We actually went to one last Friday (Gordon Long Park) with Katie, Kamryn, Owen and McKinley that so far we think is the best other than the Tontitown park of course... unless some of you have suggestions. But I also realized I didn't say how much we are loving living here in the good ole 72762. I must say it really truly is beginning to feel like we have found our place on this planet for our little family and we couldn't be any luckier than to be able to share it with people like all of you! To those of you who are north and south of us... COME HOME SOON, WE MISS YOU ALL SOOO VERY MUCH! many hugs and kisses to you all, hope to see some more blog posts soon!
