Singing in the Rain!

June 15th

Day 42
We went to fill out paper work at the new apartment complex and we found out that we got the apartment! We were so excited that even a big rain storm cloud looming over our heads couldn't get our spirits down. A little ways into town the rain subsided and the sun was out. So we went about our business and not 5 minutes after we got home it started pouring down rain here too. We had the door open because it was just so muggy and hot so we saw it start and then stop. When it started again, it started HARD, way harder than before so me and Brooke went outside to play in the big puddle that's right outside our parking spot.
Then I remembered taking Silas outside to teach him how to jump in puddles when he was little too. (It was always my favorite thing to do in the rain so I taught my kids how to, also!) So me and Brooke went to the HUGE puddle at the top of the apartment complex that I took Silas to, but someone seems to have made it...well, not so huge. And it was full of mud! But by the time we got back towards our house we were not only completely soaked but greeted by an even bigger puddle from all the rain gutters and the storm drains not being fast enough to suck all the water down. Boy was that a sight to see once the storm slowed a little and the drain caught up!! It was like a huge bathtub drain, sucking all the water down in a spiral!
Brookelyn had so much fun she didn't even want to come back inside!
