Rain, Rain, Go AWAY!!!!

So it has been raining non stop for the last few weeks here in Utah. It has to wait until school is out to damper everyone's fun. Since we aren't able to go swimming outside or play at the park, we decided we better still have fun. Tanner, Brooklyn and I went outside to splash and dance in the MASSIVE rain storm we had this afternoon. We jumped in the HUGE puddles by the road and chased leaves down the streams. We found the biggest worm I have ever seen in my life. Brooklyn decided it was so big that it had to be a snake. She carried it around on stick and kept it safe under an umbrella. When we told her he needed to stay in the garden and she couldn't bring him inside, she started to cry. She said, "But he's my best pet snake!". After a little coaxing, we convinced her that we could come visit him any time if she left him in our garden. By the time we came inside, there LITERALLY was not a dry square inch on either of them. Now were kicked back in our warm dry robes watching "Drake and Josh" and eating marshmallows with hot chocolate. (not in the drink.... just by the handful!) Lets hope the rain stops some time soon. I don't know if I can be stuck inside my house all summer with both my kids and no car to drive anywhere!
