Yesterday morning James and Sam each pushed a dump truck along the path behind our house. I had David in the Bjorn, and I also pulled along a wagon because I figured Sam, if no one else, would need a break eventually. We happened to stumble upon the back path as a truck was spraying the sides of the road with water...my guess is as a fire precaution since there is a lot of tall, dry grass back there, and it is used by a utility company. Because of this, though, all the potholes were filled with water, and the boys had a blast running, stomping, and pushing their dump trucks through the puddles...as well as splashing and sitting in the muddy water. We hadn't expected there to be puddles considering it has been hot weather here, so it was a fun treat for the boys, and boy, did they have a blast!
Upon our return home, I turned on the front sprinklers for them to run through to try to wash some of the mud off of them. This seemed to work fairly well, and once again they had a blast in the water. It was a nice break from the expected trip down the back path this morning.
