Sounds like me! Except, we'd get so dirty we'd have to eat outside at the picnic table! One year there was a pile of dirt behind our house and we played in it all summer. My mother just put us in bathing suits and hosed us off before we came in! One thing I know, there was always something going on and I don't believe I ever once told my mother "I'm bored"
