Rain, Rain, Go Away!

There's a story that's been told numerous times in the Johnson household. One day, when Matt was much younger, his dad promised he would take him surfing. Matt was really excited to go, but his dad told him they weren't going since it was raining. He was insistent on still going despite the weather & really created a scene. To prove the weather was too rough to go to the beach, Matt's dad "tossed Matt in the front yard and Matt did somersaults across the wet lawn in his underwear".....at least this is how Matt tells the story. Well, Braden almost had a similar experience when he begged to go outside in the rain. It has been pouring relentlessly, and Braden has been so bummed he hasn't been able to play in the yard.

Braden used all his charm to plead with me to play in the puddles. He didn't win this one though!
Fortunately, Braden found other activities to enjoy inside. He kept running to the window to see if "water was still falling from the sky."
