Win, Win!

I try to find something for the boys to do so I can get something, anything done in the house!  I put them on the deck with two pans of water and told them to dive their dolphins and trucks in the water.  I gave them some cups to fill.  My vision:  Two little boys calmly playing in the pan of water with the things provided.

Their vision:











I will admit, their vision looks a lot more fun.  They stripped down and of course wanted a, "hot, hot shower!"  These boys love getting messy but love taking a shower even more!

Fast forward two hours:  I'm determined to get something done in this house!  They wanted to play in water again.  "No!  We have had enough water for one day!"
I put them back out on the deck, with pans of rice and trucks.










They loved this!  I did end up with rice all over the deck but that was such an easy clean up!  And it was outside.  And I did get something accomplished that day!
