Rain drops were falling on my head!

Rain.  It's what's been on everyone's mind here for....well....it seems like forever.  We have not seen rain in over 3 months.  And while normally it wouldn't be that big a deal, we have also been in the high 80's to high 90's for the past 3 months.  Needless to say, dry and hot do not mix well for plants, grass, wildfires...you know what I mean?  Last night though, while we were playing with bubbles in the backyard, it started to sprinkle.  So I grabbed my husband a a couple beers and sat out on the back patio, well, until it started to lightning and the wind picked up.  But Delaney got to spend a little time in the rain and thoroughly enjoyed it.
She was laughing and stomping around in the puddles.  We were all enjoying it.  But then it got to a point where it wasn't safe outside anymore, so we scooped her up and headed indoors.  And when she realized that she wasn't going to be able to play in the rain or blow bubbles anymore...this is what we got...

A sad little girl!  It's OK, the weather is back to dry and hot today, so we'll get some bubble time in tonight after dinner!
