First Rain

Today we were delighted to get our first heavy rain of the rainy season. Hurray!! After months of extreme heat and dryness, rain is a complete joy! Even our trees looked happy! As always, when the rainy season begins, our whole family heads outdoors to play in the rain with boots and umbrellas....

We're so thankful for the start of the rains and hope they continue!! The temps are still hot, but the rain is a welcome, welcome relief. Upcoming plans....next week we will be on vacation at the beach and the following week, the school holiday is over. Eliza will be heading to Thai school, Tom to teaching kindergarten English and Claire and I back to homeschool.

P.S. I have to show you what Tom made for dinner one night this week. A fantastic feast of chicken three ways (garlic, curried, and basil). It lasted three meals!
