Ry & Jas

There are a few things that my boys just LOVE.

And living where we do in a small town makes it very possible for them to indulge in them quite often :)

 Ryan & his friend Cody after a 4-wheeler ride.

Yes they are holding a bunch of meat they managed to eat while covered in mud...oh, and it was raining while they ate outside of course.

We were at a friends house with several other families having a bbq when they showed up like this.

Some of my friends girls were way concerned that I would be upset seeing the amount of mud of them and the 4-wheeler.  They came running to find me and let me know I had better come quick!  I went, thinking something was really wrong. lol :)  I have seen lots worse.  I am raising 5 boys here :)

Jason and one of the many knives he has made...thanks to Grandpa Swain for the metal, he has an endless supply of metal for "blades".

This one he managed to make without a trip to the doctor for stiches :)

Kev tells me almost daily that all he wants for Christmas is a watch (because Jared has one), a knife and a small box (because Jason has a small box he made that he keeps all his knives in.). Kev in only 5! Seriously boy, you really think I'm going to give a 5 year old boy a knife?! Crazy Kev......he just thinks he is as old as all his brothers and copies them in every way he can.

I LOVE my boys!
