Who doesn't love playing in the MUD!?!?

After dinner, we decided that it would be wonderful to sit on the porch and enjoy the rain.  So we did!  We set up the lights, the candles, grabbed a drink and prepared Caleb for what would be his first real mud experience.  Caleb was a little apprehensive at first (it's not every day Mom says "Go play in the mud"), but after his first splash he was having a blast!  Surprisingly he was relatively clean for playing in the mud.  Caleb made some great splashes and then decided that it was time to dig with his new shovel.  He made some wonderful mud spots after Dad showed him how to properly use the shovel.  It was such a joy being able to enjoy our family, our house and nature.
