Sadly, there was no choice but to postpone the annual ice cream social. The last week of July and first week of August are statistically the driest, warmest weeks of the year. Unfortunately Mother Nature didn't read the memo.
Yesterday afternoon we had to make a choice. It had been cold and cloudy all day and the forecast said a 40% chance of rain on Saturday. Does Aaron go out shopping for the best ice cream toppings bar ever and hope the forecast is just plain wrong OR do we reschedule?? Finally at about 3pm we decide to postpone a few weeks and hope for better weather.
We were sad and out of sorts Friday night. It was our version of cancelling christmas morning. We were BUMMED OUT! We decided we needed a Plan B -- Le's go to the movies!! We sat on our couch, freezing (because it was so darned cold all day), and said "we should leave in 10 minutes". Then we both promptly fell asleep. Apparently the decision making took everything we had!! After our naps and watched tv and went to bed. I guess that was Plan C.
Totally freezing Friday night....nap time!
We woke up this morning to cool and cloudy. We were probably the only Seattleites happy to see the rains come. Our decision was vindicated! As it turned out Aaron's college friend Ben was in town so we went to lunch with him and his wife and friend. We had a GREAT time!!! Everything turned out just fine today.
Anner, Aaron, Ben, Karen
Mark your calendars, August 18th is the day!! Com'mon Sunshine!
