How they started a mud fight

July 15, 2012 By Erica Deuel Leave a Comment

This (Friday) afternoon was one of those moments that I was VERY thankful that my phone can take pictures.

It all began with playing in the backyard.
We were all happy…and dry.
We decided to pick some figs from our tree.
We were looking for ripe figs…
…and enjoying them with our dramatic “mmmm” faces.
One discovered the filled up water pool from earlier & they all quickly got in.
Clothes can also act as bathing suits.
They were all giddy and thrilled.
In these moments I am smiling from ear to ear.
They discovered that the “splashed out water” created mud in our grassless yard.
That mud was pretty fun to throw at one another.
There were lots of giggles…(and a lil hose water washing eyes on my part)
…all the while this sweet girl enjoyed swimming in what was quickly becoming a mud bath/lake (from her brothers rinsing off)
Memories with my kids…there is nothing like it!!

 

I saw this quote on Pinterest the other day…

“If you want your children to turn out well,

spend twice as  much time with them,

and half as much money”

~Abigal Van Buren

It is something I have been sitting on!  I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend and enjoying the little things!!
