One of the beauties of our mediterranean climate here is that we get basically no rain during the summer. This summer was dry. And by that, I mean that we had--barring a single sprinkle in October--exactly zero picoinches of rain from sometime in April until saturday. Then we got over 1,200,000,000,000 picoinches throughout the day. So:
It started with a walk around EV with the kids, Little on her very favorite bike:
Then we just basically had a hydrophilic free-for-all until lunch. Enjoy!
Little and her best friend Olivander earnestly went to work digging a hole in the sand. Nobody quite knows why, but neither of them could be bothered for quite a while.
Littler discovers which direction rain comes from:
Of course, we are due for a dozen inches [that's 12,000,000,000,000 picoinches, if you're counting] or so over the next 6 months so maybe the novelty will wear off. But hopefully not!

Beautiful!
I just marvel at how lucky your girls are to have their kidhood documented in such quality - once in a lifetime portraits taken every day, basically.
Someday I WILL get a nice camera, and you WILL have to teach me everything you know, and I will do my best and they will still come out not so good, but I will be so happy!!
as always, gorgeous pictures. I'm glad the girls had fun in the rain!
