The sweetest sound...

For almost five months, we have gone without rain.  Our area has seen it's fair share of dead trees, brown grass, little watering ponds that have dried up and last week several devastating wild fires.  There will be no July 4th fireworks to shoot off this year. 

On Wednesday, we woke up to thunder, lighting and rain.  What a sweet sound it was!  It was temporary relief from watering the grass and a much needed day of rest with the kids to not go anywhere and do anything!  Now, we just need about 25 more inches of rain to get us out of this horrible drought!
