Dirt, Glorious Dirt

My boys LOVE dirt.  They love to throw it and cover each other in it.  Gabe, naturally, is much better at covering Zach in dirt than the other way around.  Dirt and rocks.  We have every outdoor toy imaginable in our backyard, and these two little monkeys always go to the dirt and rocks (and the hose).  Yesterday, they were covered from the top of their heads (new haircuts to boot) to the bottom of their pudgy little toes.  Here are the pics:
