Mud Monsters
This is the final part of the river- the lake. Carter and his buddies dug it out and filled it with water and were frequently found taking mud baths.
Notice how long the river is. It wraps completely around our little garden. I couldn't get it all in one picture.
Work, work, work!!
I'm not sure why all the Rubbermaid lids were necessary, but apparently they played a vital role in the making of this creation;)
Taking a break to just enjoy the mud pit!
I love seeing what their little minds come up with. I'm not sure what they're doing here.
I think one day everything in our backyard is just going to collapse into a giant sinkhole.
This is the rest of the river along the backside of our garden. It's pretty impressive.
Finally ready to get cleaned up!!
I'm so happy Carter loves to play outside and that he can have fun and be a boy.
I love that all the neighbor kids come over and dig in our backyard.
I do sometimes wish I had a beautiful yard, but I know one day I will miss the river running through all my potential flower beds. I'm so thankful my sweet husband lovingly fills in the holes when they get too deep.
And mostly I'm thankful that the motto in our home is that that we're raising a little boy not a lawn!!
