Let it Rain!

I don't really mean that.  In fact, I am not looking forward to rain at all.  I technically haven't had my fill of snow yet.  But... with spring on the brain, I couldn't resist these..

Do you know I haven't ever had a pair of rain boots?  So this is a real treat!!  And I got them at an awesome price.  

One step better?  I didn't wait till spring to break them in.  I took them for their first romp tonight.  In the backyard.  Through the snow.  With the dog.  It was a blast!!   Please ignore the rain, dirt, and leaves already on them.  But, I had to show you how awesome they are!!

 

 

Breaking the seasonal rules = happiness!

Stocking up on things that will make the April showers amazing = happiness!

Finding new ways to have a blast with the dog in the backyard = happiness!!

What do your rain boots look like?

Droplets

Finding something good or at least interesting in all the rain = happiness!

So, let's say a few nice things about the rain we are getting to show our appreciation. The rain has left my garden growing more full and tall than ever! My hot peppers haven't drown (yet). The watermelon is going to be amazing this year. Everything has that after a rain squeaky clean look. I haven't had to wash my car. There are plenty of puddles to run and jump in.

AND... look at this cool picture.. it's taken from inside the car, and I just adore how it looks like hundreds of tiny orbs or stars in a sky! What do you like about rain?

Rainbow

Seeing rain and thinking of rainbows = happiness!

It feels like we have been getting a TON of rain since the snow stopped here in NY. So, along the lines of trying to make the best of it... when I have been thinking of rain... it makes me think of rainbows! I don't think you can have rainbows without rain, right?

Just think, somewhere in this rain someone is enjoying a rainbow... and that it cheers me up!

This rainbow picture was taken a few years ago by Mr. Happy on his cell phone. It was such a cool sight since their were two very bright rainbows in the sky!

Hold on Longer?

Watching a tiny blobs of water seem to dangle as if holding on to an invisible string = happiness!

Incredible how water can defy the pull of gravity to dangle on the edge and stubbornly decide not to let go and drop. Maybe the three of them are having a "who can hold on longer contest" ... who do you think will win?

Rain Droplets

Looking at something bothersome in a different light = happiness!

All the rain we have been having in New York -- where did it all come from? But when you take a quiet minute, sans complaining, to look a bit closer... it's really incredible how rain droplets look like little glass orbs!
