Fireflies and Lightning Storms, a first and a favorite


Our first night in Tennessee was graced with bunches and bunches of little glowing fireflies dancing around us in the trees and gullies surrounding the house.  As we settled back for the night, storm clouds began rolling in, thunder rumbling and lightning streaking across the sky.  It has been so very long since we've seen lightning and heard thunder, and we really enjoyed it.  
Every night since our arrival (save tonight) we've walked around the loop and looked at the fireflies dancing and flitting through the night as the deer advance on their own regular route of travel.  
And so it becomes, that one of my firsts (seeing fireflies), has also become one of my favorites (much like said lightning storms).

How fun, I've never seen fireflies. So you don't get thunder storms in Alaska? What are you doing in Tennesse anyway?
Hey if ever want more info on how Kaden and Kolby came to our family, feel free to contact me at spaceylacee@yahoo. It's one of my fav things to talk about :)
Alright, enjoy those fireflies and storms!
