Boys and MUD

Today, I took the kids to Walmart.  The lady at the service counter was nice and said, "Your little girl is so pretty!"  Then she looked over at the boys and shrugged her shoulders and said, "Well, they're just boys."  She was being funny and I wasn't offended at all, but I thought back to earlier in the day, and I thought, they are not just boys!!  They are fun, dirty, energetic boys!!
  
After lunch Grant asked if he could go out and check the vegetable garden to make sure it wasn't flooded(we had storms and rain all night and all morning long!!).  Grady, of course, followed him, and this is what I see a few minutes later...
It all started so innocently!
Then the wrestling began!
The take down!
Aren't big brothers the best?!!
Loving life!
Grant was seriously so happy to be in the mud, he was getting his groove on!!  :)
Oh bubby, when you splashed me, I got mud in my MOUTH!!!
And now I am very itchy from the mud and grass!  Can I go in now?
The only thing injured in this fun mudfest was a large patch of grass.  Sorry dad!!

Boys will be "big, strong, fun, dirty, adorable" boys!! Those mud pictures are awesome! Having a little girl definitely makes me love having boys even more. :)
