Puddle Stomping

Yep as you can guess by the title, I had some fun.
On Sunday the sandwich giveaway team went out to do God's work like they usually do. Just that this day it was pouring out! We all got soaked. I was offered an umbrella but by the time I was offered I was so wet that it didn't matter. Terry and Holly thought the same thing.
I started it! As we were leaving one of our stops I saw the puddle. It was calling me. Just so happens that Terry was beside me. So I stomped. Got Terry a little wet. I thought he would end up getting mad. Nope, he laughed and got me back.
As we were going through on of the allies there was a HUGE puddle. I saw it but so did Terry. So we ended up on either side of the puddle and when he stepped forward I would step back and vice versa. Then he just leaped into the puddle and soaked me! SO I jumped right into it too. The whole team got a good laugh. We all were having fun while we were walking. The streets were pretty quiet that night.
By the time we got back to the office Terry, Holly and I were soaked. Terry and I were wet up to our knees. We gave Susan the camera to take a picture of the whole wet team. Susanna was in Costa Rica already! She was holding the camera trying to figure out how it worked. WE told her that the camera was backwards! She said that she couldn't do it and gave the camera to someone else. So we got a few pictures.
Those were my only pants and shoes and I had to wear them the next morning. I was going to the airport to see off the Costa Rica team. So thankfully when I went to Sushi's house she put my clothes in the dryer. She also leant me some socks. What a great friend. Thanks Sushi!!
So we had fun that night. We were all kids again and it was awesome.
I think the real reason why God made rain is so that we could puddle stomp and have fun. hehehe.

One year in Osoyoos Rod, Michelle and I had a mud fight. It was great! Until the mud had rocks. Then Rod and I don't remmeber if Michelle came went in the water. Stupid of us considering there was thunder and lightning. Oh well, we had fun!
