Rain Rain Go Away

It seems to be raining a lot lately and when it sprinkles here, we flood. Our backyard becomes a lake in no time and it's taking forever for it to dry up. My kids are going crazy wanting to go outside and play. When I try to take them out front, they are only happy for about 2 minutes and then they want to go swing which is a no go since there is constant mud under the swings. Well, when Riley got her new roller skates (I still need to get pictures of her in them) she has been roller skating inside to get the hang of it and it's driving Reagan crazy. So I brought the car inside for Reagan to have something to do. At first it was horrible because Reagan drives the car around the room at the gym all the time, but there the carpet is that really flat carpet so she rolls easy.... here not so much. She can't push hard enough to get it to move and gets really mad and throws lots of tantrums. But now that it's been in for a few days, it has become the main toy to play with and has kept both kids busy most days... they get in together and drive places, take their babies places, fill it with whatever they can find, and the best is using it for their jungle gym!!! My little dare devil will climb on anything!
