Whats New Sunday April 27th I think!!!!!

Hi from Debbie is RAINY New Orleans where it around 75 degrees.  Talk about RAIN!  We had 8.5 inches of rain between 1:00 and 9:00 pm yesterday, and expect more this evening.  Yesterday evening we picked our way through streets we knew wouldn't be flooded to the bridge to get across the MS River, only to be stuck in traffic for over an hour on the interstate trying to get to the Z's game!  I kept calling the stadium and being told "rain delay, game will start shortly.  Around 9:00, I called again and was told GAME CANCELLED.  We were very close to my mom's house, so decided to visit her with Ethan, she had been wanting to see him.  She so enjoyed our visit!  Ethan must have drank giggle juice, cause he giggled and entertained us the whole time.  We left mom's around 10, and still there were several street closures, but we knew which ones were passable.  This morning, we didn't get to go fishing - more rain out near the fishing spot!  Ethan was so disappointed, no ball game, no fishing.  We took him to Mass with us, and then on the levee to see the high river water, several large ships, the ferry...  Back home for breakfast, then he wanted to go back on the levee.  We walked well over a mile, down to where our older son has moved, called him, and he met us on the levee to throw rocks in the water with Ethan!  For someone who never wants to get married and have kids, he sure enjoys spending time with his nephew!  Ethan is now gone back home to his mommy's house where they'll have a birthday party for his daddy.  He's excited about more cake and ice cream.  Just what he needs, more sugar!  He had donuts for breakfast.  I asked if he'd like to go to McDonald's for breakfast for pancakes, thought we could share, but NO. Going to see if I can get a few things done before the weekend ends! Debbie
