I hesitated to take the grandchildren outside today. Not only did I have five of them to keep track of by myself, but it rained last night and I was somewhat afraid they might head straight for the dirt pile. I needn't have worried. Ha! (Please forgive the barrage of photos. It's how I keep my sanity.)
So, they got dirty, and we all survived. A few of them had their clothes tossed into the washer at the back door and another couple were brushed off and declared good enough. I found that a dirt pile keeps them centrally contained and rather happy. And when they're happy, I'm happy too.
What a wonderful day!! This is beautiful and good fun! blessings, Catherine
ReplyDeleteIt's a really good thing we went outside yesterday because today they would be covered in mud!
DeleteYes, dirt is always good clean fun, isn't it?

What a great idea...very entertaining! It's cold here tonight,...going down to 39 degrees! Brr!
ReplyDeleteIt got chilly here overnight too, and rainy. My year is a soggy mess. Good thing we played out yesterday.

Perhaps you should plant a garden with them....
ReplyDeletePumpkins perhaps?
Cheers!
Linda :o)
That's a really good idea. Maybe Grandpa can give up a little garden space for a pumpkin patch. That would be fun.

yep, aah, don't pumpkin patches need a homemade scarecrow.. smallish I would think.
ReplyDeleteThese children could even scare the pumpkins!
