Partners in "Crime"

Riley and Lady decided to go outside and enjoy this beautiful day.  The sun is shining and the temperature is not quite as cold.  He had done what I had asked him to so he wanted to play outside in the back yard.  Why not??

Except that with the rain we have gotten lately, we have a "River that Runs Through It".  Yes, that means mud...

I guess it could have been much worse...Both Riley and Lady were speckled with mud all over...  In the pictures below you can't see the fine specks on Riley's face but you can on his clothes.  Lady had much bigger specks all over her white coat.  Bath's were in store for both of them.  Needless to say school has been delayed today.  Riley helped bathe Lady and then cleaned his tub (with my help) and got a bath himself.  I had to laugh, it was really quite funny!

Jedi mind trick-"you will get clean!"

Well, now they are clean.  Can they stay that way long enough to do school?  I think so.... :-)  Now it is time to start leaning about Martin Luther King Jr.  We are starting a lap book about him today and will work on it this week.  I'll have to post our progress and results.  Have a great day!
