A Muddy Family Fun Day

Posted by Holly Nelson on Thursday, September 24, 2009, In : It's a BOYS Life! 


Last weekend we stayed home all weekend, except for church. We are not used to staying at home all weekend. I love to go-go-go. I'm not a homebody. I blame it on my ADHD. But it rained the soccer games out and I was coming down with an illness. Everyday the kids ask "Can we go dirtbiking?". You mean Mud Biking? And that day was no exception, they still wanted to ride in the rain and mud. We explained to them if they rode they would have to clean their bikes when they were done. That didn't di...
