after the rains

It was a stormy birthday weekend. We need the rain and seeing as I always get some sort of thunder shower on my birthday, I was not surprised but rather gleeful.

And considering the photo ops later in the day, the rain was very much welcome. 

The rain left beautiful wet little jewels all over the yard.

 
I could get to used to this weather pattern - some heat, followed by drenching rains.

Now that the new ceiling fan is installed in the bedroom I can better tolerate the heat.

Apparently I was outside, lost in the raindrops as Dave was hanging from the ceiling yelling for me. Whoops. We got it up and now, all is fine in Minneapolis.
