rain walking

Tonight there was a tremendous thunderstorm right as we sat down to dinner.  So as soon as it was over (and we finished lighting, then snuffing out our Easter candles) we headed out for a little walk to buy some popsicles for dessert.  It was still raining pretty steady and much-o fun was had by all. 



We brought the popsicles back home to eat at the table, since the rain + umbrella + popsicle combo was sure to end in at least one tricky moment and possible loss of either popsicle or umbrella :) 

Fun little way to end the day, and now all four are snoozing, and I'm headed that direction too.  As Matt would say "I'm getting more sleep than I deserve with a 12 day old".  And he's right.  So am I.  But an early bedtime sure helps out too!

    So glad for the fun in the rain for the kiddos. Hope we can do a rain walk when Grandpa and I come. Can hardly wait except for the dark shadow of leaving the kiddos in Indonesia. So good to hear you are getting some sleep. Love to you all. Jan
