The Great Mud Fight

May 29, 2016 by Adrienne

Sterling’s wish to have a mud fight on his birthday was granted. The kids had a great time, and other than a load of incredibly dirty laundry that miraculously came clean the first wash, a whole lot of grass clippings in my washer after said load, and a muddy shower curtain, no damage was done.

Sterling declared it the best day ever. Elliot avoided it all – but she hiked up her shorts, lest they become muddy.

    You can see they were having a blast. I just wonder how it is the boys doesn’t seem as muddy as the girls. Hmmmm… Did the boys gang up on the girls??? HA!! Love Ellie idea of avoiding it. Hehehe!! Memories made for sure.

    Sterling requested to get less dirty, and apparently the girls chose to oblige him. I’m nearly positive the girls first muddied themselves in an attempt to camouflage themselves – so as to avoid the mud from the boys. Because that makes sense?! I didn’t ask. Some things I just do not want to know.
