Rain, rain, go away.

We have officially started the rainy season here. I was told it goes from June - Sept. Hopefully since it starred early that means it will end early. It is beautiful and sunny in the morning and then the clouds come in after lunch and it rains or drizzles or sometimes just a crazy downpour for a few hours and then sometimes it stops by bedtime, or it doesn't stop. Either way, if there isn't thunder and lightning (which there usually is), my girls are playing in it. We love summer rain.

Last summer in Utah, it rained one day, like a pelting hard rain for about 20 minutes and it filled the gutters up so much it was a river down the street. We saw neighbors getting waterski inner tubes out and floating down. My girls and I were leaving the subdivision when we saw a stroll drain clogged by debris and there was about 2 feet of water in the gutter and street. We jumped out of the van and just played in it. Then the drain cleared, the rain stopped and we left. We love to play in the rain.
