It rained

and Ava wanted to play in it. She's had this raincoat since before she was born (thanks Grandma Kathee) and its about time to retire it. The boots and umbrella had yet to be used to sing in the rain and so this was the day. As you can see, she enjoyed herself...........

And then the rain had stopped so she decided to spend some time in the sandbox sans umbrella. And, as happens often here in Texas, the rain began again suddenly with no warning
