White trash?

It's not what you think.

Today is a rainy day which in California means it's WINTER! Rainy days remind me of 'Thumbs-up Seven-up', hot cocoa, and boring videos teachers would dredge up to keep us entertained.

I love rainy days. Don't want it to last all week - but any change in weather brings excitement and a chance for new adventure! Kids add to that excitement and the ultimate enjoyment! It gives me a chance to move down the alphabet from my Type A personality.

The only snag in my plans is that my talent is not always able to create what my mind envisions.

Case and point:
Rain + splashing = awesome play
Trash bag + Shelly = raincoat? Not so much...



Still the boys had fun which is the whole point!







Walker wouldn't wear his 'trashcoat' so he did not get to stay out in the rain.



Afterwards they both got to hop in the nice warm bath and then climb into dryer warmed clothes.

Ahhh...the joy of a rainy day.

It looks like they had so much fun! My boys are the same way and they won't wear any kind of coat either.

So i meant to tell you that I hated that book (i fear posting the name in case someone loved it). But some of my friends really enjoyed it. I guess you should read it and tell me what you think. Just be warned you may wis you hadn't wasted your time.
