(Almost) April Showers

Wet day here today. There is so much rain that I have forgotten just how long it has been falling. In fact some schools are closing due to flooding. I have never experienced such a thing. Since I cannot play outside, I may as well stamp!

Princess A is wondering when it is going to stop raining, though as I explained to her this morning, all this glorious rain is going to make our flowers very happy. Well, it would if the previous owners had actually planted any, but that is a different story. This little bear has about the same expression on his face as she did. You can see in the background the torrential rain that is falling for all of the lighter blue panels are embossed with raindrops. The local waters have risen so high, there are fish swimming by his feet.

Many thanks to Sweet Sketch Wednesday (#42) for the layout. And since Bugaboo Stamps was their sponsor this week, I had to use one of their images.

Here is a photo of the pond in my back yard (yes, it is supposed to be there) that is much deeper than usual. Look at the surface. Of course it started rainy more heavily as I stepped close to take the picture.

And here is the stream that runs along the side of my house (there is another one in the back). Usually it just sort of meanders its way along. Today, however, some little critter could go white water rafting and have the ride of her life!
