The rain has returned...

August all suited up and ready for the next nine months of gray and drizzle. At the moment we're experiencing heavier than usual rains, and hoping to get a little break soon.
Here are August and Rose during one of their favorite times of the day - mail delivery time when they get to crumble and shred the nonessential mail. In this picture their having a good time with cards sent by Grandma Gloria. If you look closely at August (and ignore the sweet potatoes on his shirt) you can just about see his first two teeth.

Sadly, we forgot to take our camera to the polls today where the babies went to witness democracy in action. Voting may soon be a mail-in process in Washington so I (Becky) was eager to take them to the polling site at least once before the tradition is gone. Rose was outspoken about something while I was voting, but otherwise they were very well-behaved.
