Mother's Day 2022

 May 2022

Back in May we celebrated Mother's Day. We always celebrate Mother's Day by going somewhere beautiful and I get a photo with my boys, thus ensuring I'm in at least one photo per year. 

This day, after church we took a nap. After we woke up we could hear it pouring outside and it was so dark and gloomy that I figured we had already missed the best lighting.

We're not afraid of any rain and I never regret a good nature outing with my family so we got in the car and went to a very local park. 

We were already soaked from walking to the car, and on the drive (less than 5 minutes) the rain slowed and the most vibrant rainbow appeared. The park was pretty empty because only weirdos go to parks on days like this. And we got to bask in this stunning color show. 

 

It was still raining during these first couple of photos and the sky was pretty exciting as you can see three of these guys are looking at something. 

I adjusted my camera settings so make this true-to-life colors. 

The next three were taken with a phone which automatically over exposes images, which can be fine, But I love the brightness of the rainbow in contrast to the very grey skies and you don't see that contrast as much in these overexposed phone photos. 

And here's a long series of Walter photos. 

This boy always goes crazy over puddles, I'm glad I caught this little tumble on camera. 

Don't worry, he was fine and back jumping in more puddles soon after. 

Anyway, no regrets about getting out in the rain. And grateful that I've been entrusted to raise these sweet boys.
