A Day at the Arboretum

The boys love going to the Morton Arboretum and it's always more fun to go with friends.  The boys love Joseph and even fight about who is going to play with him more.  The nice thing is that Joe is such a nice boy and he plays so well with all of the boys that there is never really any fighting when he is around.

 Gus has been really into maps lately.  He was trying to maneuver through the maze.  Even though the map had nothing to do with the maze.

 I think the boys got their shirts wet and took them off after about 5 minutes of being there.

 Sometimes it is just so hard to be little.

 Snack time.  

 The boys were way to preoccupied eating Scooby snacks to smile.

After some snacks the boys played in the koi pond.  That is usually the last thing we do at the arboretum since the boys come out of there soaking wet.

Anders and his Favorite Drink

Let's go way back to Superbowl Sunday.  We had a few friends over for a laid back, food filled evening.  When we weren't looking ,Anders decided it was high time to try a beer.

Don't worry folks, the bottle is empty.

Oh, and when I said he grabbed it when we weren't looking, I really meant this...

Does this catch anyone by surprise?

 Anders was very upset when the bottle was taken away.  He cried for so long we ended up just putting him to bed.

The other boys didn't want to watch boring football.  They opted to watch a movie in the basement.  A good time was had by all.
