Lately, the weather has been, shall we say, less than ideal. It seems like we can't get out from under this cloud, literally and metaphorically. We hate seeing another day come and go with everyone cooped up inside because of the rain, so the team here at Girard Homes came up with a few ideas to brighten up your dreary days. 

Embrace the rain! Sometimes, all you can do is let the rain come down, so why not enjoy it? Throw on some rubber boots and a jacket and get outside and splash around. Kids (and adults) of all ages will love it. As long as the weather isn't dangerous, we suggest heading out onto the Katy Trail and explore some of the creeks around there!

Movie Marathon! This is your typical rainy day activity, so try to kick it up a notch! Make a few extra bags of popcorn, melt some butter in it, grab some candy and get some sodas for that true movie theatre experience. Pick your favorite series to watch (we won't even cast any judgement if it's Twilight) and power through them.

Game Day! You can play pretty much any game on your phone these days, but it's nothing like the real thing. The enjoyment and nostalgia you get from actually sitting down and playing your favorite board game with your friends and family goes perfectly with the coziness of a rainy day.
