Fun in the Rain!

It doesn't rain a lot here.  So the fact that it's rained, and rained good, twice in the last week has been so fun!  I have good memories of taking walks in the rain as a kid....I find it very calming.  So when the rain starts I send my kids out to enjoy the storm.

You see that Tanner is often in costume.  Brian and I were watching the kids the other day and commenting on how it'll be sad when this phase comes to an end.  We've had some fun years watching those boys in costume.  Here are just a few pictures I took in the last week.  My favorite is the one where Brian is teaching Andrew how to mow the lawn....Tanner, who doesn't like the loud noise, followed behind in his Batman PJ's.  

Then there is the one with him in PJs that he grew out of last year, with a giant Transformer thing on his hand and his Spiderman mask.  He thought he was super tough!  

And lastly, not in costume, but playing with Brian's firetruck that really squirts water when you hook it up to the hose.  The facial expression cracks me up -- looks much like one of Eric's faces.  

 And a final "costume" -- Eric on his bed with his Lego head blanket on his face.  :)
