Rain Rain Go Away

Raining again today!!! I can't believe how much it's been raining lately. Not so much fun for me! I get to sit at the house and do nothing!!! Been doing alot of laundry so our kitchen is turned into an explosion of drying clothes! Remember when you were little and you would get all the pillows and blankets from around the house and put them over the kitchen table to make a tent. :) that makes me smile remembering that! Good times. Cleanup was never much fun though! Having to remake all those beds! But it was always worth it, especially if you were the "princess" you could just order your servants to do it! lol
When we were little my sister and i would play princess and servant i would be the princess first with assurances that she could be the princess next. I don't know if there was ever a time when she did get to be the princess!!!
When we lived in Iowa we did lots of imagination games. We lived out in the country so there wasn't much to do all the time. We had a stone basement and way in the back there was a "secret room" at the end of a really skinny hallway thing. We would take our rollerskates down there and play! Once we recorded all of the movie Aladdin on my cassette recorder and did a play for ourselves. And there were the endless summer nights of playing 3 person baseball out in our huge back yard. Sometimes dad would come play with us, but he always hit the tennis ball too far for us...i swear he could hit that thing a mile down the dirt road! Tennis balls can get some air!
So...I hope you enjoyed my reminiscing..
Here's a pic of Buddy with his favorite toys...3 shoes and 3 socks...at least he's consistent!
