Mud fight...

It all started with a quick visit to my sister's place on our way to my dad's farm...

Within 15 minutes my son looked like this...it was rainy, cold and....well...dirty! We were inside of course...because thats where adults tend to go when it's rainy, cold and dirty outside...

Personally I would have been screaming at the outrageous idea of a COLD hose down...they were not...

We let her stand here like this for a few minutes...just so it would be etched in her memory...just how cold it really was...

Then we did what any decent parent would do and gave them all a nice warm bath...to make up for the harsh measures taken 10 minutes earlier...

the photo of the kids in the bath reminds me of henry at church on sunday. one of the kids in youth was doing a special musical number and i noticed as he was getting his stuff together he was busting out a baritone saxophone. i nudged ben and whispered, "this is going to be really loud." the kid honked out "love one another" while henry covered his ears with his hands and i did my best to muffle his loud obnoxious protests: "that's too loud!" and all the kids behind us were giggling as quietly as they could manage. it was all i could do to keep from grinning like an idiot.
