rain rain go away

Now that we are on our tenth day of rain, even though I think it has been raining since the end of April, we are completely stir crazy. The boys need to be outside and quite frankly even playing in the rain in no fun, it is cold, rotten and nasty. There was a quick break in the weather the other day and we took advantage of the brief, almost glimpse of the sun. As you can tell, the boys are playing in what would be a sand box but we haven't gotten any yet. Anyway, it is FULL of rain water. I heard today that the rain fall for June so far is above 5" and it has yet to hit 80degrees.
