Mud, mud and more mud

We're existing in a mud pit right now. Spring snow melt. You wouldn't believe the stream of water that is running into our basement right now. There's a little mini-waterfall coming in through our window well. Can't wait for this part of our project to be over. The girls, however, are enjoying the mud immensely. We've been riding bikes and jumping rope in the new garage. And it involves a walk through our mud pit. Oh joy. My little pigs love going through the mud!

I didn't mention that Nicholas and Lolo both got new sneakers yesterday. So today, after the birthday party, Nicholas comes to our door wondering if we'd like to go for a "run". And off we go. Wow. In their new sneakers. Stomping through every single puddle along the way. Soaked before we're even half way home. Clearly, I was born yesterday.
