Boys & Mud

Today was a rainy day, but that did not stop the guys from working in the yard. It was wet and muddy out there, but they worked hard shoveling dirt over the back fence. Ben was dying in the house because he wanted to be out there with the guys. He must have got out of his rest 20 times "just checking on Dad" and giving me many other excuses. I finally gave in, bundled him up and sent him out. The best part was that he wore Heidi's pink polka dot rain boots from a garage sale because his croc boots are too small. He started to give me a hard time about it, but I told him if he didn't have boots on he would have to stay inside. Shows you how much he wanted to be out there, he wore the pink boots! He had a blast and was covered in mud. I went out to take some pictures and he was up to his knees in mud. They had to hose off before coming in the garage. Thanks to our Dads for helping John today in the wonderful conditions- you're the best!
