James took the boys into the woods the other day.  They hiked, collected sticks, built a fort with our fort kit and did other things that boys like to do.  He said the time flew by and that he’d have to bring me next time since they had such a good time.  

I was happy that he brought the camera with him and snapped a few pictures of the whole experience.  

That night, we took Brayden and Carter to a parade with some of our friends.  There were lots of fire trucks blaring their sirens.  There was also a whole lot of candy being thrown every which way and a lot of little kids scrambling around trying to fill their bags to the brim.
