No Swings Today...

Last night there was a big storm that came through. There was a Tornado watch, flash flood warnings, etc. It looks like we got about 4-5 inches of rain in that one night! Check out what it did to our (and our neighbor's) backyard:
I guess we won't be playing on the neighbor's swingset today. The girls, of course, were excited to see the new lake in the backyard.This is why we have such a huge backyard - it's a floodplain. I guess one time a few years ago (before we moved here), the flooding was so bad that the water got halfway up that yellow slide! Crazy.

All this standing water can not be good for our mosquito problem. Great.
