Singin' in the Rain

Friday night when we got home from work, Adam had just started the grill when the rains started. Not just soft, gently falling rain, but the falling like cats & dogs (who came up with that anyway....). Our deck isn't covered & we opted to wait a few extra minutes, letting the grill warm before we put burgers on. Of course, after the major rain had passed, Kabe thought it would be fun to run on the side walk in front of our house.

Not sure if you can tell or not from this picture, but the water on the sidewalk is over the curb from the street. Really hard rain.


This was the view of the back yard. this is our fourth summer in this house & although we've seen bits of pooled water previously, this is the worst we've seen. Of course, several hours later all water had drained away in the street and in the yard.



Once Kabe had finished playing in the water he came in to change and wanted to put on his newest jammies. He is totally into Transformers right now. He was so excited when I brought these home and asked me to take a picture. He's so going to regret this someday!


Dad picked up mac & cheese for Kabe on his way home and since we were having burgers on the grill, it worked out as a great side. Once he finished modeling, Kabe helped me make it. What a great family Friday nite!
