April Showers...

A tribute to rain...

Photos via Pinterest. I am OBSESSED.

 

 I'd like to start off this post with a joke that a first grader told me while subbing:

 "Rain, rain go away and don't come back...hahahah!"

I know what you're thinking...that's not a joke

I wasn't going to rain on his parade

I wanted to squeeze his cute little cheeks :)

...but I didn't

It is April and we all know that means rain. Where I'm from at least.

The rain does all kinds of horrible things such as ruining hair & outdoor plans, bring gloominess to a day, etc. etc. blah, blah.

 I try to be a positive person.

SO here's to you rain! 

Here are the reasons why I can't always hate you

I love:

+Dancing in the rain & just not caring
+The adorbs rain photos all over this post

+Kissing in the rain 

+Listening to the rain as you drift off to sleep...

+Wearing my wellies :)

+Jumping in worthy puddles

At even a light drizzle I whip out my Capelli wellies because I love them and will take any excuse to wear them! They are the subtle silver lining on any rain cloud! I may be 23 but I still enjoy jumping in rain puddles like I am 3...Cody didn't understand what I meant by a "worthy puddle"; maybe you need to have a great pair of rain boots to get it? Or maybe I just have way too high of standards for the puddles I choose to jump in...

Every April will bring the rain so I think it's necessary to invest in some fabulous rain gear! It's the best way to make the best of the lousy weather. I personally have yet to find a cute & stylish rain coat (that is not outrageously expensive) until now! Here are my picks that will hopefully soon be in my closet at the ready for the rest of April and Aprils to come:
