this site always posts the pictures in reverse order, so these pictures start with most recent.
the boys and i went on an "army adventure" today . . .we walked down the gravel road and back to the lake behind our house (maybe 3/4 mile away). this first picture is the boys after we got back home sitting on the ground under what will be our swing set. they were wiped out from our "long" walk.
