Boy I've kept my dad busy! We've been cleaning up the yard, pulling weeds, cutting stumps, digging stumps, making runs to the dump, stripping wall paper, fixing drywall, prepping walls for paint...and that was just in the first few days :)
We've done a lot of yard work to prepare for putting a garden in. My father dug around one stump to cut it off as low as possible and this created a trench that the kids loved digging in. Then the rain came and the trench became a moat.
While working in the yard this morning, the girls started digging in the moat and slinging shovels full of muddy water all over one another. Before I knew, they were both dangling their feet in the moat and covered in mud. I told them this was ther chance, they were already dirty so they might as well go ahead and enjoy it. Well, I think this might be one of the only times they listened to me!

oh my. that's awesome. did you have to throw away their clothes?
That is so great! It's fun to see the girls like that..instead of the boys!
They look like they are having the time of their lives! My mom was so good about letting us make outdoor messes like that and they are some of the best childhood memories I have!
