Now that the girls are getting older, I can allow them to play safely in the backyard for a few minutes while I get dinner started in the kitchen. We have a huge window that overlooks the backyard, and I open it up so that I can listen in while they play.
Earlier this week, I was elbow-deep in raw chicken and couldn't get outside fast enough to intervene with the mud wrestling that started. Riley ran to the backdoor, very proud of her accomplishments. She was SO happy to rub her muddy hands all over the back door, while I ran to find my camera to document the crime. Her accomplice (Makena) was trying to hide the evidence outside and I found her hosing herself down.

how fun! my brother + i used to make enormous messes with mud when we were little!
Oh my...that would make my blood boil for sure. Future mud wrestlers???
Now that looks like some good dirty fun!
Oh that is to cute/funny! We used to have mud ball fights in the spring and summer. Now that I'm the parent not sure it would be as much fun!
Jaysi, my blood pressure did sky rocket for sure! They would LOVE to mud wrestle every day of the week:)
Those are so cute pictures and it looked like they had a blast! It was probably worth the clean up effort! lol
ooooooooooooo man!!!! (my husband would have DIED at that glass door being covered in mud!) those girls are absolutely precious!!! mud and all!!! love it.
hehe busted!! They still look cute all covered in mud!
They are had a lot of fun. SO CUTE!!!!
Have a nice weekend.
Oh my....... what charming scamps you have!
3 children alone in a yard equals disaster--- I've learned the hard way!!
Ok...I would have to keep reminding myself to breathe. That everything will be ok...it can be cleaned, but man they sure do look like they are having some good ol' fun!
So where was the Third in all this?? :) Enjoy these 'early' crimes huh?
Ahhhh, fun summer activities. Gotta love the dirt...or cry everyday:) You are a good sport, mama!
You are a brave woman...I let Kainoa go outside to play with the "big" kids all the time. But I don't let them play in the dirt. I don't think I'd care if it were just a couple of kids, but imagine hosing off 12!?! No thanks.
I enjoyed reading your blog today.
I am still finding my way around blogland....
I always love making new friends..
I am posting about Disney so hope you will stop by.

Your girls are toooooooooooo funny! I love how they don't mind getting dirty!! I bet there is never a dull moment in your house!
Looks like they had a great time!
Oh that is just too funny! How do you
a) Not scream
b) Not laugh hysterically at their
antics?
Hoping you have a great summer!
playing in the mud is just fun! messy but just fun. I also loved that she tried to clean herself up. that is the difference b/t boys and girls. my boys just want to stay dirty.
That is hilarious! One is so clean and the other dirty, they work good together!
I am always amazed how much your girls love dirt and mud..maybe that is why they play so well with the boys next door:)
One fine day several years ago, when I only had 2 children, I went outside to find them "painting" the house --- with mud! :)
oh so glorious!!! love those girls!!
That is priceless!!!
that's an art work :)
Yay for sisters and the mischief that surrounds them :)
