Monsoon!

It doesn't rain often in Arizona. When it does, it pours ... especially during monsoon season! This season is marked by high humidity and frequent evening downpours over small geographic areas (think Charlie Brown rain cloud). Tonight we ventured out for some park time and pizza with our friends the Wellings. The clouds looked a bit dark, but the storms often blow over. Not the case tonight! The storm snuck up on us, and it was raining cats and dogs. We decided to head to the car but had to take cover for about 10-15 minutes under a shelter building to let the worst of the storm pass. Luke is a bit frightened of the rain, but Reid was quite intrigued by it all.



Nate, Truman, Hazel & Abby Welling enjoy splashing in the puddles.
