Bad Ideas - A Picnic in the Rain

I started this blog when we were in Utah for Brooks Jr.'s blessing about a month ago, but I never finished it. The weather in Utah for the first couple of days was absolutely beautiful and with lots of family visiting and a smallish condo, we thought it would be a good idea to have a picnic at the park a couple of blocks away. Sure, the weather forecast said it might be rain and it would be cooler but we're from Washington, how bad could a little rain be?
I wish you could see it better in this picture, but it was so cold and raining much harder than it ever does in Washington. It was windy so it was raining sideways.


Of course that didn't stop the boys from playing with their radio controlled cars.



We all dressed in layers. We put on whatever we could find to keep us warm.

Brooks and his parents made the most of a very wet and cold day.



This one makes me laugh. No, Heather is not pregnant. Brooks Jr. is the only one who did not suffer from frostbite that day. He was snuggled up in a front pack and secured under his Mom's jacket.

We had hamburgers on the charcoal grill but dessert at the condo!
