Mud Mud Mud

Brandon tells me all the time that Ellie and Ethan get their love of playing in the mud from me.  Which is probably true.  Just ask my mom about Crystal and I playing in the mud in the lot next to our house in Bluewater.  I still remember being sprayed down with the water hose in the backyard.  Well my kids have been making mud almost everyday lately.  We didn’t re-seed the backyard and the grass has died out.  So any water and you get mud.

Maybe I am crazy to let them do this, but they are happy and I get time to do something I want before I have to clean them up.  I do miss my grass because then mud would only happen sometimes not all the time.  I know they had to get some of this mud craving from their Dad.

Kevin thinks I am crazy when I let the kids go play in the rain. But like you said, they love it! I only do that in the warm rain we get in the monsoons, but it is such a good childhood memory. Good Job!

Ellie looks just like you did when you were a kid. She is such a little angel.
