Rainy Day Memories

Christa Parker

The month of April kicks off the start of the rainy months. And I know you all know the saying … “April showers bring May flowers and grumpy bus drivers.” What? You haven’t heard that one? Well here in West Virginia you will. My boy’s bus driver gets very grumpy during April's shower season. And what makes her so grumpy every morning? It’s not that she has to go out into the rain each day, or drive with her windshield wipers on, or that she even misses seeing the sun. Nope none of those reasons. The reason is that the children bring mud onto her bus. Oh and let me mention that we have a gravel driveway. I hope this April we don’t get as much rain as in the past. Here are a couple layouts that will give you great ideas that you can do with your rainy day pictures.

 

Design notes: Everyone is looking for ways to fit a large number of pictures on one layout; this one has a whopping 9 pictures on it! By printing the picture size at 2x3 many pictures fit without cluttering the page.

After the Rain by Stephanie Sterk. Supplies: Papers: Cosmo Cricket, Stickers: K&Company, Alpha: Making Memories, Brads: Creative Imagination.

Journaling: Your favorite place to be is outside after the rain. We often stand in the garage to watch the rain, but as soon as it stops you run out and start jumping in the puddles and stomping in the streams running down the curbs. You sit right down and SPLASH SPLASH SPLASH!!! It seems to make no difference to you that you are splashing yourself right in the face, or that your clothes are soaked with mud and water.
