After talking to my neighbor yesterday morning, he suggested that my kids get out and do a rain dance as we are in a drought condition here in West Virginia. Well, they thought it was a great idea...donned a feather and painted up their faces. Kurt grabbed an empty paper towel center and stapled curling ribbon on it and Kami had a blanket wrapped around her. I was laughing at them doing circles and chanting, EYE ya ya ya EYE ya ya ya oooh la rain oooh la rain boom boom boom. All of the sudden we heard a big crack....you guessed it thunder and lightening. We all got inside of the house and within 10 minutes we got the most rain that we have had in the last 2 months. 1.2 inches in about 2 hours. I know that this is a coincidence, but I have to tell you...the kids really think that they have something here!

That's funny! I guess our drought moved over your direction. We're in Oklahoma and were in a very severe drought last year. I think we've been in a drought overall for about 10 years if not longer. Tell those kids to keep up the rain dances! LOL
