Dancing in the Rain

 What a glorious feeling to be dancing in the rain with you mommy and auntie.

The afternoon thunderstorms or evening down pours still amaze me.  It isn't a mist like in the vegetable section of the grocery store, rather its giant rain drops falling that can soak a person in a matter of minutes.  This is nothing like what our kids grew up with.

When it rains in Oregon you have to bundle up because its cool out.  Not here, you can actually go out in the rain and jump in puddles.  The puddles are big and the rain is warm.

Here you need and umbrella because by the time you walk to your car from anywhere you will be soaked.  You can tell a real Oregonian, they never carry an umbrella.  It rains to often and the rain is more like a vegetable mist, so you'll be only a little damp getting to your car.

The boys are so lucky to grow up in an area where they can run, sing, dance and jump through the rain.

Auntie and Mommy took advantage of an evening thunderstorm to take Cutie E out in the rain.  He wasn't quiet ready to get down and run through the drops, but he was happy to twirl with whomever was holding him.
