I AM DANCING IN THE RAIN...

For the past few days now the weather has been pretty depressing. Don't get me wrong, we need the rain and I like the rain but when you have four children & a DOG inside the house it gets a bit crazy. So this afternoon we sent everybody outside to play. I had talked to my neighbor Marlene on Friday about maybe grilling out with her family since they were in town- but did not think about the forecast. But God was good to us. He kept the rain away until after we were done with dinner and started cleaning up. It was nice.
While Terry was preparing the grill/food Josiah was playing in the puddle of water that ALWAYS accumulates on the driveway when it rains. He had a blast. I took his socks off first and rolled his pants up but that didn't last too long so I decided to go ahead and take all his clothes off and let him go crazy in his diaper. He had so much fun. Oh, to be that young again. (do I sound old or what?) My kids LOVE Mr. Tony and Mrs. Marlene. They have a blast with them. We hope to have dinner with them more often- especially now that the weather is getting warmer. Mr. Tony started pushing Josiah on Riley's bike. Josiah of course loved it.
So when Riley wanted to get back on her bike, I had to be the bad guy and take him off. He did not like it. Luckily Mr. Tony was sitting right next to me and I handed him right over to him and this is the sad look we got from him (Josiah that is-not Tony although he looks pretty sad too.):
Thanks guys for coming over and having dinner with us. It was fun:) I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

Looks like you had a lot of fun. Yesterday we had Church outside it poured when we got there than it stopped long enough for the service and baptism and after that it poured. I can't wait for the sun to come back for a while. I like the rain too but it gets depressingl after a while.
