They just go together...
Contemplating making the plungeAnd they're in
Braving the cold
And then it all broke loose
Braving the cold
And then it all broke loose
(this is my favourite photo of the day even though it is over exposed, love those happy faces)
And even small dogs love the mud and water.
Just 'cause I thought the weeds growing on the side of the road looked pretty.
Yesterday we decided it was about time we took a trip out to Mullinger's swamp, a few kms out the road. I had never visited it before and even though the boys had been they have never seen it this full of water before. We packed up lunch, towels and some changes of clothes(I have been around boys long enough to know that there is a natural magnetism between them and water and mud) It made my heart happy to see my two youngest and three of their friends having so much fun and being so free. We did take some yabby nets out with us but had no luck with them which didn't seem to bother any of us too much. I think it may be a little early yet for them to be crawling or maybe it was the excessive noise level that frightened them off,lol. Tomorrow we plan to go out to Bool Lagoon, another largish body of water near home that has been empty for several years but is hopefully filling up this season, and do a little bird and nature watching. I love the feeling at the end of the day when you have had an active time out doors, tired but somehow energised at the same time.

Fun! I love boys and water. I only have one boy, but if there is water, he finds a way to get in, even if it is just a toe or finger in! lol
Hugs and thanks for the smile! Great pics!
