Mud Facial Anyone?

So, I thought you might like to see the latest happenings here at our house. Last week it warmed up a bit and I thought it might be fun for the boys to go outside. Right before they went out I said, "watch out for mud...try not to get in it." Ha ha. What a joke! That's like telling a magnet not to get near metal. The next thing I knew I looked out the back door and saw picture #1. I just cracked up. I couldn't help it! So, I ran and got the camera and they posed for me. I guess laughing wasn't the best response because they only got muddier after that! Apparently, Wesley got a mud facial courtesy of his brother. After a while of mud bathing, they wanted to come inside. I had no idea how to get them in the house! Eventually, I decided on taking off their clothes outside. Although they didn't enjoy the chilly air on their wet skin, they did enjoy the warm bath afterward (you don't want to know what the bathtub looked like after that). I carried Wes upstairs to the bath, but Robby ran up and later had to come down to mop up his footprints! He loved it.

Check out picture #1 again...notice their feet...both have a missing boot. Those mud-caked things were later found imbedded in a deep mud hole. Lovely.
