Rain is becoming a bummer

Well, for the 5th time in 3 weeks, rain has dashed our soccer plans. I feel so bad every time I tell Hayden, "Sorry, It's raining so we can't play today." He of course responds with "I will play in the rain, I like the rain." Honestly, if it weren't for the liability and safety, I would throw jackets and boots on those 8 kids and let them practice in the rain. Too bad that's a major no-no in organized league sports. We can't even practice if the fields are wet. It's not that we can't find things to do indoors, today we made Play Doh pizza and played musical chairs instead of practice. It's just that I want to let him enjoy his last week of soccer practice and it's hard to do that with the rain. Yes, I am a desert kid. I complain when we get rain and it ruins our plans. Sorry England, you are lucky to get 2 non-rainy days a month! I guess you should all just move here and you can learn to complain about the rain with me :)

Pics of our rainy day afternoon to come tomorrow...I'm off to check out the Olympics!
