Treasure maps and a pirate ship.

Mud Day 2013: Eating like pigs. :)

Mud pie with gummy worms. :)

No hands allowed. GO! 

Excuse me, I moustache you a question. 

Mud Day 2013 (Part 1)

It was cold and rainy, but we still had fun. Snuggled up in some blankets after and read some books! 

Mud baths, mud pies, mud soup, mud slinging, mud jumping, mud houses.

Where The Wild Ferns Grow

The last couple days have been so sunny! Finally. We have taken advantage of the shade down in our wooded area. After spending some time there, I think it is only appropriate that we call it Fern Gully.  :)

I think we will be moving this a little further into the vines to create the feeling of a hide-out.

Trailblazing and picking ferns to make paths.

They love this spot. It is part of the stone wall. The roots of the "tipped" tree are partially exposed.

Treasure Dig

It was a beautiful sunny day. 

They found the big shovel.

 I didn't say no. 

Wonderful play took place.

They dug a big hole. 

They buried the treasure.

They filled in the hole and marked it with a magnet letter H. 

They tried to dig it back up.

They dug.

And dug.

Then I dug and dug. 

We ALMOST didn't find the treasure.

They thought maybe the hole was so deep that it had fallen into outer space. :)

They found the treasure. 

Although the hole itself might have been the best treasure.

Sometimes you have to just say Why Not?
