Friday Fun

I haven't played along in a while with Carrie at Candid Carrie for ...

And playing along for the first time at

On Monday, the boys and I went to visit my grandma. We were inside talking and the boys were outside, I thought playing with some tools... but instead they were getting muddy. It was a warmer day here, and not too cold, so I just let them get muddy.

I had feared some type of dirtiness would come out of going to grandma's, so I had extra clothes on hand for them, just forgot the shoes. So I had them take off their shoes and socks, by then they were so muddy, that they socks were thrown away, and I gave the shoes a bath. The boys continued on splashing in the mud.

Cody really liked the mud and splashing and running his fingers through it, making mud pies for everyone. He played in the mud a long time. He finally ended up taking off his pants and running around in just his underwear for about 5 minutes, until he had just about enough mud and I gave him a rinse off int he garage sink. Thank goodness, they didn't get it into their hair!

Chase on the other hand, got muddy but didn't like being wet. Said the mud and water were cold and he wanted to change and get cleaned up. He liked it at first but liked being clean also. They both were so happy that they were able to get dirty and muddy without me being upset about it. Boys will be boys and I figured one morning fun it's not going to hurt them.
