Throwing Mud

My little one tried her hand at throwing some mud today. It takes lots of practice to center the clay on the wheel. Next time, I think we'll make some pitch pots or even a rope pot. Before the mud was wiped from her face, she was off....

... to play in a huge mud puddle in front of her "rainforest". Our overgrown hydrangea bushes, which I think may be original to our house, have been a huge part of outdoor play. Her pal, Bernie, seems to always be by her side these days.
