Kiss me in the Rain!

It is raining, and has been off-and-on for the past 2 days! I find it very exciting! We have been in a drought for way too long and I'm hoping the past 2 days signifies that the drought is over! I want it to do this all summer...OK, not ALL the time, but at least two or three times a week would be AWESOME! The rain pattering on my roof and splashing on the ground outside my window is what put me to sleep the last couple nights, and it was absolutely wonderful! It is coming down hard again as I type this and it is so relaxing. (The picture below is of the street in front of my house...the rain was pouring down!)

I'm not sure how much rain we've gotten, but I'm gonna guess anywhere between 3-4 inches (maybe more in some places). We are in desperate need of moisture, so we'll take what we get!

I took this picture today during one of the rain showers. I love how drops of rain settled on the petals.
