Dances in rain

Thunder and lightning - what's that?! We've experienced them exactly once since we lived here in so Cal... So truly today has been an adventure. I've managed to convince the kids - even Roo who currently has a bit of fear when it comes to loud noises like the garbage truck - that thunder is the greatest and we love it. They're sold.

After we hosting playgroup this morning we went outside to use our rainboots, jackets, and umbrellas which was a wildly exciting event for the kids. The gutters were pretty much flooded which made for some fun wading. One of the playgroup moms says her husband gets annoyed when she goes out in the rain with her kids because it seems unsafe to him. Bizarre concept, as I was telling her, in the mind of a northeasterner!
