Boys

With so many heated and interesting debates going on in other peoples blogs I feel guilty to be so shallow, but I did not start my blog to debate and stir the waters very often. I am sure that once in a while I will post about something meaningful, but only if it relates to me or is something I am dealing with personally, after all this is all about ME. (may I draw your attention to the title) I do love a good debate, catfight, whatever once in a while but if I feel the need to explore those instincts I will do so on your blog not mine.

Nathan spent the day putting up shelves and making tables for the garage. The boys wandered in and out helping or distracting him now and then. They also played their computer games and watched cartoons since it is saturday. After lunch I decided that I needed some lonely time, so I headed off to Clarkesville to do some antiquing. I found nothing that I had to have but I enjoyed the beautiful weather, and the wandering that I did. On the way home I was to stop at the store to pick up some food for an outdoor campfire dinner. (Nate had also made a fire pit) I called to let them know that I would be home soon with the grub, only to find out that they had already eaten. "Hmmm" I said, "I thought we were cooking over the fire" "Well" Nate said. "The boys wanted me to go to the creek with them and look for crawdads, so I did and that's what we had for dinner along with cereal." "HMMM" I said. "So the boys ate CRAWDADS for dinner." "Luke and Evan actually ate them.'" Nate said, " Luke devoured them, and Evan only ate one, and Austin had the rest." "OK" I said, "Do you still want me to get hotdogs and marshmallows?" I came home to find a little fire going in the fire pit, and the boys doing stunts in the driveway, so we opened up the marshmallows and had them for dessert, while the boys and their father discussed how they would get squirrel for tomorrow night. Boys! I thought about the camera, nahh there will be plenty more of these nights I think.
