Brothers


Here they are at Red House.


On the way to Lake Hobart.



Brothers on a never ending journey.

This weekend my sweet husband took the two older boys on a little backpacking trip. He has been taking them on little over nighters since they were 2. Each trip he brings home the greatest pictures of the two of them. I think it is so wonderful that they will always have these special trips with Dad to look back on. It is a time when they are able to get along really well and enjoy the outdoors. They have both taken after their Dad and want to start doing big backpacking trips. Next year they are going to do some 10 mile ones and work their way up to a 50 miler before too long. I am so grateful that they are interested in such great things. I know that the outdoor explorations that my hubby went on in his youth really shaped him as a man. Going and seeing God's creations unmarred by civilization is really a testimony growing experience. It is so great that they have a Dad who takes them on these fun trips.

Your boys are so cute! I feel kinda sorry for Sidney for when she is old enough to date! The boys are going to be afraid to come around knowing that she has four brothers! And you know there will be plenty of boys wanting to date her because she will be a babe!! Anyway...this is the first time I've seen your blog! Totally cute!
