After the shoot I picked up the boys and brought Ian home as well. It's so much easier when there is another shoot in the morning if Ian doesn't have to go all the way back home. Anyway the boys have WAY more fun if he stays over. And so do Chris and I. It's fun having friends over!
The boys decided they were "broiling hot" after all that battling and needed to go swimming as soon as they got back. Needless to say that this early in the season, the water is pretty brisk in the pool. There was quite a bit of squealing until they got "used to it", which is actually code for completely numb.
apparently making whirlpools helps you stay warm
so do campfires
For supper the boys built a roaring fire and we roasted hot dogs and had s'mores for dessert. Sitting on the deck after supper and enjoying the quiet (the boys had all gone in to play Wii), I remembered that we are so blessed by our house. We love living here...
Now the house is quiet again since the boys decided again to brave the spring coolness and (no, not go swimming again. It's 9:30 at night.) sleep in the treehouse. We're leaving the laundry room door open. I wonder if we'll wake up to boys all tucked away in their beds?
*At 3:30 this morning we woke up to the sound of doors and 4 young men coming in to get a good night's sleep. :o)

Dave makes THE BEST whirpools!! I mean, you can totally just sit back and relax and be carried along by this enormous, fast current! The kids LOOOVE it!
