Boys' world, flashy pictures, and lots of honey.

This evening it was raining like all get out so we headed to the biggest indoor place we knew of to walk to get our exercise for the day. We hit massive traffic on the way to Bass Pro and by the time we got there half the car load was asleep~

This place is huge and a dream world to my little men... and big man. We girls enjoy it too, but don't drool quite like the boys do. There was hardly anyone there this evening thanks to the huge storm that rolled in and it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. When we got there though, we discovered we should have come on Tuesday... as on Tuesday evenings kids eat free at the seafood restaurant there!

On the way home, Robert had to run by a job site to check on a few things so the kids and I were in the car hanging out until he returned. I had my big ol' flash with me so we amused ourselves with making "lightning" and shooting "flash in your face" shots~

We got in pretty late -- soaked too from getting in from the car. Our back part of our house is flooded once again -- pretty bad. We're grateful for the main part of the house being above "sea level!"

Brighton turned 13 weeks today~

Our sweet little honey~

Speaking of honey... There was a house Robert has been working on that had bees coming out of the wall -- further investigation showed that there was a huge African bee hive inside of the wall! He had a guy we use to buy honey from come and remove the bees. The three older boys went with Robert this morning to watch him remove them.

There was 50 pounds of honey in the wall! And more bees than you can imagine!

Robert sent most of it with the bee man, but here is what he brought home from work tonight:

It tastes delicious and I won't need to buy honey for a long time~ what a sweet guy.

What a treat to taste fresh wild honey!

Sounds like you guys had a fun, adventure-filled evening. Was that a sporting goods store?

ROFL to the first pic. Last week on the way home from an out-of-state wedding, embarrasingly enough, I did the same thing. How great that my entire family has (blackmail) shots of me doing that.

For somer reason, these pics of you look so much like Abby. Or better stated, your family resemblance came through more than I've ever seen. And to me, that makes me want to squeeze you and love you even more than I already do. I know you must both know how fortunate you are to be related to eachother. Us out here in cyberspace would probably give toes for that.

Oh, I love wild honey! It's been years and years since I've had it. You two are the cutest couple ~

Oh that bee story brought back memories! My parents once had bees in a wall in a house they were living in. My mom said she would kill about 10 bees a day and could not figure out where they were coming from...until honey started dripping from the wall!

That's some nice honey! those shots bring back memories of when my brother did bee keeping and we used to extract it out of the hives. Here's to hoping the rain stops so you can be on dry land again

Glad to know my family is not the only one who goes to the local Bass Pro Shop for family entertainment.

happy 13th week, brighton~*! what.a.doll.

caed looks so grown up in those shots. and christian looks taller these days, too.

i was looking back in the archives to show a friend some of your furniture/home stuff this week [she is going for french provencial/elegantcountry/shabby chic]and was amazed at how much the kids have changed in a year. so cool you've got such great documentation of it all.

I love your site and all the pictures, you take wonderful shots! Your posts are always an inspiration to me and I love the relationship you have with your family. I think it is so wonderful when a mom and her daughters are best friends.
