I love my deck...oh wait...

Have I mentioned that I love my deck?  I do.  If you follow me on twitter I talk about it too much.

My kids would probably say, "If you love it so much why don't you marry it?" (If they had been me and my cousins when I was little).  I might.  That's how much I love it.

 

But that's not what I'm writing about.  I'm writing about a Very Fancy Rain Gauge (that sits out on my super awesome deck). See picture above.  Upper right.  Yes,  I said Fancy.  It's Very Fancy.

 

We've had a lot of rain.  Emma decided it was time to stop talking about how much rain and measure it.  As you can see from our Very Fancy Rain Gauge we've had 2 1/2 inches since Sunday...or was it Monday?

 

Want to make  your own Very Fancy Rain Gauge?

1. Find a used up water bottle.

2. Cut off the top.

3. Use a ruler and make one inch tick marks starting from the bottom.  Mark 1", 2", etc.  (As you can see we thought we were in for at least 8 more inches overnight...that's how much rain we've been having.)

4. Put it on your awesome deck (or another fave place) and let it rain.

smooshy. LIFE.
