Bring on the rain

One afternoon last week, it started to get cloudy and the air smelled like rain. We never thought in a million years that it would actually rain but to our surprise it did. For desert dwellers like us rain is a really big event, so the kids immediately ran into the backyard to play in the rain. As you can see from these pics, the one who loved it best was Cupckae. I love watching her experience things for the first time. She stayed outside through the entire 20 minute rain storm!
