Praise God for Rain!!

This summer has been the second hottest summer on record, so yesterday morning when we woke up to rain and a cool 75 degrees, it was heaven!  The boys and I went outside and enjoyed it for about three hours.  They ran, splashed, played soccer, and went bird hunting. 

They were shooting cars as they drove down the street.

Waiting for his snack.

Garrett refused to take a picture...unless...

He took it with Hank, only Hank moved out of the picture.

Side note about the bird hunting:  About a year ago we came home and had two huge crows in our front yard.  Garrett got out of the car and made his crow noise, and they looked at him and did the same.  Then for several afternoons in a row they would be in a tree just outside of our backyard, and Garrett and the crows would go back and forth making crow noises.  He decided they thought he was their best friend.  Since then when we see them we have to try to "talk" to them.  Today as we were eating our snacks, Garrett heard them, and said they were saying, "Praise God for the rain, Praise God for the rain!" 

Looking for his crow friend.

Calling out to his friend.

I heard him!
