Adventures in the rain

For family night last night we went to see the river here in Dublan that is overflowing!! This is only seen maybe once or twice in a lifetime here because it is usually so dry. Here is a picture of the boys on the four wheeler, the river starts beyond the trees, but is flooding over into this orchard.

I can't believe how beautiful and green it is here right now. Before I lived here I was used to living in Ohio where rain and green trees and grass are just a given. I had NEVER heard of praying for rain, irrigation, or sage brush! I snapped these pictures from the back of the four wheeler, it just looks so pretty right now.

After our fourwheeler ride we decided to get into the hot tub in the rain, until the lightening started and I made everyone get out!


Tanner especially loved the rain, just laughing and squealing through the whole storm.


There is nothing more beautiful and needed than rain in the desert (unless you're a chile farmer!)
