Around the House-The Male Edition....

Mark and my big boys were at Scout Summer Camp all last week. Abbie, James, and I had a little staycation at home in which we only did that which was absolutely necessary and watched lots of movies and I did not cook one meal. Yep. We ate a lot of cereal and pb&j. And Chinese buffet.

It looks like my boys had a good time.

He's so cute!

Matt doing the mud run thing called Adventure Valley.  Tyler declined this year.

Tyler at the shooting range.

Tyler look exceptionally handsome in this picture. Is this child really 14?  Because in my mind he is a climbing-fool three year old.

Matt was bet against that he could not stay in this tree for ten minutes holding on like this.  Of course he had to take the bet.  Which is why he will never drive a car or be out of our sight until he is 30.  He made it though and won an Oatmeal Cream pie.  It would have to be Key Lime for me before I would even attempt it.

I think at this point he must have been tired of his dad taking so many pictures of him.

Matt finding time to relax.  He remained poison ivy free and no broken bones happened on this trip.  He did get bit by a scorpion on his finger though.  Which would have been enough for his mom to call the whole thing off.  Mark wisely did not tell me until they were home or I would have been in the car to bring them home.

The other little male in my house look mighty cute.

This has nothing to do with the males in my house, except that they ate fresh green beans with their supper last night.  I was able to freeze 15 quarts yesterday.  We will pick again tonight and do it all over again tomorrow.  

On today's agenda is paying some bills and I hope to have some swing time with James doing a whole lot of reading. He is finally excited about the Summer Reading Program and getting lots of tickets to get prizes. His mom is excited about the free books he can earn. :)
