A Very Rainy Day, Part 2

I can now reveal the identity of our Very Special Guest player:

She has very lovely hair. Even lovelier in person than in her pictures.

It's Annie of Anniethology! Annie and the Lovely Lori are sisters and Annie is here for a visit. I did not reveal her identity because she was having a guessing game on her blog and I didn't want to spoil the game for all the people that read both of our blogs (well, for the one person that I know reads both of our blogs ;) before she announced her location. I've never had the chance to meet a fellow blogger (that I didn't already know) in person. It was very fun. She's delightful. But, if you read her blog you already know that.

When I last left you, the card game was over and the kids were outside playing. The older kids were painting and G-Man and his girlfriend J were having their first disagreement. It involved a bubble wand, and it wasn't pretty.


G-Man and I had a talk about how you are supposed to treat your girlfriend after this happened. ("If she wants the bubble wand, you need to give her the bubble wand. This applies to everything she wants. Remember that, and all will be well.") They made up. It's all good.

After playing for a little while, it started to rain again. Torrential rain. The kids loved it. They just kept playing. I walked into the garage to watch and continue taking pictures.

G-Man, Dana, & J. She was the nice mom that went out in the rain.

Dana's older kids changed into their bathing suits.
They were serious about playing in the rain.

He hoards things. I'm not sure what to do about it. Especially similar items.
He was trying to hold every bubble wand he came across. Thus, the fight with J.

It started raining so hard that G-Man finally decided to give up and come into the garage with me. Except the amount of rain was disconcerting to him and he wasn't sure what to do. So, he dropped to his hands and knees and crawled up the driveway into the garage. Did I go out into the rain like a good mom to help him? Ummm....no. Did I at least get a picture of him crawling? Ummm....no. I was laughing too hard and trying to talk him into the garage.

We came inside to get dry and warm and ended up taking a bath with C & J. Which resulted in this awesome picture:

Parts have been blurred to protect the innocent.

Another great day with our friends! Thanks for hosting us again. Come for Sunday dinner soon, okay? Diggity misses seeing you guys.
