Playhouse

A couple of weeks ago we had our first rainstorm in months. We were all excited for it! I just wanted to get cozy make some soup and read all day, that is my idea of a perfect rainy day. The kids were out of school on break, and Gracie was so excited to have rain. Her idea of celebrating was to build a hut on the grass...in the rain. I didn't want to squash her fun, so I let her go ahead with the crazy idea. As she was hauling lawn chairs all over the yard, and blankets and umbrellas, sophie was inside watching her with envious intention. She had a plan. She came into the kitchen with some mismatched socks (one was Gracie's the other was Wes). Then somewhere she found gracie's purse and swung it over her shoulder like a nap sack. When the hut the was completed I went out to take some photo's. As I started snapping the pictures I felt a quick breeze on my legs. Soon I realized what it was. It was Sophie rushing full fledged out to the hut. To Gracie and my horror Sophie threw her self on top of all the blankets, and to add a little cherry on top, Oscar went and got comfy too. It was so funny, but sad at the same time. Gracie was so not pleased, and Sophie couldn't have been more pleased. I couldn't laugh out loud but inside, I could hardly contain myself.
