Puddle jumping in our front yard

My girls like to get dirty and wet just like most boys and so it was no surprise that they were splashing and falling in puddles in the grass on Tuesday! We got a lot of rain in a short time which causes the drainage easement in our yard to get behind a bit. It actually becomes more like a raging river when we have torrential downpours. They all got their boots on...(not sure why when they were filling them and then wearing). Fun, Fun! Yesterday they decided to mud-slide in the back-yard...no shoes...just clothes. After a lot of rain we have a bit of a marshy back-yard. They were going down the slide into feet of slick mud. Juliette was even going down. They were COVERED with mud! They thought it was hilarious to be running around in their underwear (or be nakey...Juliette) and being sprayed with the garden house to clean off a bit pre-shower. Thank goodness we live on a small acreage mainly surrounded by woods! To be a kid again...I wish!
