I Love Water!

So, I just had to post about last weekend. I have 3 roomies and last weekend 2 were away on a retreat. So, that left myself and another to explore and use the car. Yahoo! We dropped them off at the church to meet the group and felt like we were parents dropping off our kids...."When the kids are away, the parents will play" was a common quote from the weekend.

We had an awesome weekend going all over town, doing errands, walking the Causeway, eating delicious Chai beverages, shopping, and laughing together. All of this happened the same weekend our whole area didn't have WATER! We laugh about it now and how crazy it is that it stopped working on late Friday night and started again Sunday afternoon (just in time for our other roomies to return).

We were about to start watching the World Series game on Sat. night when it started pouring down rain. We both felt so gross from not being able to shower so I jokingly said "we could just go outside in the rain". Well, that is exactly what we ended up doing! We changed into shorts and a t-shirt, grabbed our towels, and yes even shampoo. We ran around and stuck our head right under the water that was pouring from the roof covering the cars outside. We were laughing the entire time and I would hide every time a car drove by (my roomie just froze as if she was a part of the scenery). We raced inside just as one of our neighbors came outside. HILARIOUS!

So, let's just say we felt so much better and we now have a new appreciation for water. God continues to teach me these lessons of being thankful and content with what I have. I LOVE WATER!
