Chad's Last Two Summer Days with Caleigh

Chad's last two off days before Caleigh starts school were on a Wednesday and Thursday.  We had made some wonderful plans to take her to Six Flags and out for special treats but the weather had other plans.  It decided to rain storm for pretty much the entire morning and afternoon.  By 6pm it was sunny.  : /

But I didn't want to let the weather spoil our fun so, I embraced the weather.  By lunchtime I was hoping the rain would stop but when it didn't I decided to make the best of it.  I told Chad to grab our Slip N Slide and set it up in the back yard.  He looked at me like I was crazy.  His response was, "It's raining."  
And I said, well the slide should stay nice and wet then!

Meanwhile, I blindfold Caleigh and dress her in her swim suit and she is totally confused.

We take her outside and reveal our plan to her!
She thinks we are crazy but she is excited and runs right out into the rain!
We recruited the neighbors to play in the rain as well!
And they all LOVED it!

The following day brought enough sunny sky to head to the pool.  We grilled some bratwursts and then swam until Caleigh was tuckered out.  We then headed home and got ready to head to Caleigh's school for Open House to meet her new Kindergarten teachers!
