Backyard Makeover: Part 4

With all of our backyard landscaping we have been up to we decided to put in a pool . . . a mud pool that is!


With monsoon season here we are getting our share of rain, which I love!  And when the afternoon thunderstorm is over our backyard of dirt if filled with mud pools!


I don't much like the mud, but my kiddos LOVE it!  In fact they can't seem to get enough of playing in the mud.  I have yet to join them in the mud, it looks fun though.


After one particularly large rainstorm we had quite the pool, almost deep enough to swim in.


Paul & I have become especially good at rinsing kiddos off with the hose before they come in the house and at getting mud out of clothes.  Yet, I haven't figured out how to get white underwear white again.


Regardless of how they choose to play in the mud it is definitely a sensory rich playtime.


And a whole lot of inexpensive summer fun!

For those inquiring minds: No, this is not a backyard makeover project that will be staying around long term. :)  Rather just a short term perk.
