As winter turns to spring the clouds settle into the valley and give everything a long drink before the summer heat. I love falling asleep to rain on the rooftop, but typically that's the extent my enjoyment. This year, however, I have my own person ray of sunshine to take where ever I go. This little girl loves to be outside, and that love does not fade in fair weather. For Easter Norah got her very first pair of galoshes, a necessary purchase after soaking her other pairs of shoes. When she steps out into the rain her first response is to look up, feeling the rain on her face, and smile. Finding the nearest puddle is a close second.
Bishop and Norah size up the swollen Willamette River
Mud puddle, mud puddle, make me a splash!
Squish! Squish!
Norah splashes the girl in the puddle!
This was the point when galoshes became necessary.
Another favorite rainy day activity is going to Papa's Pizza. It's brilliant really, all you can eat pizza and salad and a huge play area for the little ones! I have a feeling my waistline may suffer!
Baaa!
There's always time to lounge around the house on rainy days...
even Bishop can't get enough of the extra cuddle time!
Here's to the sunshine... in all it's many forms!
