The weather.

Wow! Yesterday we our first storm in NC! In the morning clouds were starting to roll in  and the sky was getting really dark, you could see in the horizon how dark they were getting. Then right before lunch, it started to dump rain and thunder! This never happens in CA! But within the hour it cleared up and blew away and became humid. Then as we were picking up a pizza, a little bit of rain began to hit the windshield. It thundered all through dinner! Yet again it cleared up. 
After me and my brother went to bed and mom and dad were asleep. Lightning flashed and thunder boomed! It was only a tiny bit terrifying😁 In the end my brother slept in my room and when we woke up, the storm was gone. 
I'm definitely not used to this weather yet, but definitely can get used it it!

We got ducks!

This morning, we got a phone call from the post office telling us that our ducks were there and ready to be picked up! We had purchased a special breed of ducks, crested pekins, and the only way to get them was to order them from out of state! It only took 2 days to get here and they came safe and sound!  They were freezing cold when we got them, so we immediately put them in there temporary house. Now they are warm, happy and being adorable!💗 Name the third duck challenge. Alright everyone! We are having a competition! We have two ducks already named, Mrs. Wimpy Dimple and Flippy Floppy. But we need one more name for the third duck! Write your answer in the comments and the winner will be chosen on May 27th! Thanks for reading and I can't wait to see everyone's names!

Ice ❄

The ice on the pool was about 1 ½ inches thick. (Of course I tried to stand on it 😏, it did break after a few seconds though) I don't know if you can see it, but it's really  thick.  And the shore of the pond was frozen too!  This is the sunset from the back deck around dinner time.  And here's a bonus picture of the ducks sleeping after they went swimming in the afternoon!

The aftermath of the storm

The storm wasn't as bad as the weather Channel said, but there was still quite a bit of rain and wind. No tornadoes or thunder. A lot of branches and pinecones fell and some of the pathways were flooded. But no serious damage! Now we have a lot to clean up after the next storm on Friday 😄
