We woke up to rain the other morning and Brian had a showing. Our family loves the rain and something about driving in it (when its not too bad) is fun for us. We love watching it, seeing everything wet, and the smell of it too. The girls were giddy right along with me, so I thought we'd jump in the truck and ride with Brian. Unlike most people, when it rains endorphins go off like crazy in our heads!! Since our big move we don't see much rain, so we get even more excited than usual every time a storm comes along. Sounds silly I know, but its the truth. That is one thing I really really miss about Houston, living closer to the coast we had a lot more rain. Now we live in a valley and somehow it always misses us.
We packed up for a drive to Somerville to show the property. Afterwards the rain had stopped for a bit, so I asked Brian to drive us up to the lake. It has been ages since I've been to Lake Somerville, in fact I don't ever remember going. I'm sure I did as a kid growing up in Sealy, but I don't remember. It was surprisingly pretty! We ventured to this small sandy beach with a few sparse picnic tables. I immediately had visions of the girls dressed in their adorable ruffle bathing suits walking around, splashing in the water, and digging in the sand. I realized then that they have never been to a beach yet. They went three times before they were born, but I guess that doesn't really count. I know we weren't at the ocean but to them it would work for their first "beach" experience. So we parked, Brian got out his fishing poll, and I got out my camera. Here are a few pictures of our day.

| then she was hugging her.... |
