Any Given Saturday

After all of the stormy cold weekends we've had lately this was a great weekend for getting some yard work done. The kids were excited at the prospect of earning some cash and our little gal was just happy to be outside.

The big hill in our backyard was a bit of an obstacle for Sweet Cheeks but it didn't take her long to figure out it was an opportunity for some fun and excitement. Now she goes down the dirt hill like it's a slide, then climbs up and goes again. The "fun" (if you want to call it that) part for me is changing her diaper afterword. It's always completely full of dirt, pebbles, and sticks. Now that can't feel good!


The boys earned some money by helping to clear the garden area of big rocks. I always got to help with this job when I was growing up. Every spring I just couldn't figure out where all of the new rocks had come from. I finally decided that over the winter the rocks got married and had babies. It seems my boys have come to the same conclusion.

Our great idea - Getting these shoes for little one to wear outside in the mud ......easy to rinse off.


My FATAL MISTAKE - forgetting to take off her socks!

YUCK!!!!So very muddy and dirty.

Socks OFF!! AHHHH, now that's better.

Longing ----and Longing to go back outside.
