Malfunctioning Wardrobe

If it hadn't rained this weekend, we would have participated in or watched a race, four soccer games, and a baseball game. Instead, we mostly stayed home and I spent waaaay too much money at Target on Saturday, and ordering items online to freshen up my summer wardrobe on Sunday. So, basically Mother Nature is responsible for my overspending. It better stop raining or I'll be wearing my cute clothes in a box on the street. Am I the only one who thinks that online shopping is the perfect rainy day activity? It sure beats the hell out of running, I can promise you that.

The only sport-related activity that we had scheduled for Saturday that wasn't cancelled was the Tour deCatur, which is a 5K and 1-mile fun run benefiting The Decatur Education Foundation. When we woke up on Saturday morning it was pouring rain, with some thunder and lightning thrown in for good measure. The Boy was signed up to run the 1 mile with the K, but after assessing the weather situation he wanted out. The Girl was still enthusiastic about running the 5K with me and who am I to deny a child's dreams because of a slight risk of electrocution? Here we are before the race:


Since the picture is only of our tops, you can't see that I'm wearing my Lululemon capri leggings, despite the fact that they might be see-through. I figured that there wouldn't be that many people behind us so it really didn't matter. Here we are after the race:


Soaking wet doesn't really show up well in blurry iPhone selfies, but trust me when I say we were drenched. I don't think I've ever been fully dressed, with water running down my legs since, well, since the great Fanstasmic wash-out of February, 2013.
