how a gloomy day can be tons of fun

wow. was yesterday ugly or what? i really don't mind rain. but i don't love torrential downpours. and i don't particularly enjoy when it's so gray. yes, i'd rather it be sunny when it rains. weird.

i promised ian, who had worn his wellies all day, that he and addie could jump in the puddles for a bit after getting addie from school. it was a little chilly, but i figured a few minutes wouldn't hurt. i had to get them both bathed anyway, because i was going out to eat with some friends and daddy was on duty for the evening. so, we didn't have a huge amount of time.

addie's wellies still have not arrived (i ordered them over a month ago). so, i rolled up her jeans and let her go barefoot. (ian eventually did the same.) they were both soaked. addie wanted to SIT in the water, but i said no to that. we had a huge puddle down by the end of our driveway and they just went nuts. my neighbor was totally laughing at them. and the water, which was so clear when we first went out there, became complete mud! i snapped a few pictures before retreating to the cover of the porch!

oh to be a kid again!
