Just a little snippet from last night's excitement. I took Marius and Ionut with me to get Jeremy's (7 yr. old) haircut last night. We went to some friends who had fed us a couple of weeks ago and they have a darling dog and I knew Marius would love to get out and go play. They have two children on either side of him that are so great with him. Marius and Abby ran circles around the house chasing poor Gigi the dog. Marius would run through panting and giggling when she'd out-maneuver them! It was so great. We stayed for a half hour then ran to the store to get bandaids and cream for his legs that we had run out of. It started to sprinkle there, but by the time we came home it was a real Arizona "drop". It doesn't happen often but when it does, it is so much fun! We were running from the car to the house and Marius kept saying, me like, me like. So I ran under the porch and put our stuff down and to his surprise (and Ionut's) we headed back out to play. My children who were in bed, raced out to see what the commotion was and in two minutes we had everyone "dancing in the rain" and giggling some more. Even my big boys Nate and McKay joined the fray! Ionut jumped in for a minute, long enough to be captured in this picture, but though grinning from ear to ear, he thought it was a bit chilly!!! In Arizona, in September? Well, okay, the rain was a bit cool!
