{who knew a box could be so much fun}

I was getting the Christmas tree out last night to get all ready before we leave for Tennessee tomorrow and the boys took over the box. Now, mind you, this box isn't very big because we just used an old box and stuffed our tree in it. But they loved it!!!! It was like their very own fort. I think this was the first time that the boys actually played together and giggled and no one, that's right, no one got hurt! It's a miracle.
I seemed to remember when my brother and I used a box to roll down our hill in our backyard. That resulted in Eric breaking his arm and having the biggest cast all the way up. What do you expect when a big sister rolls on top of him multiple times. That would be a bad example of how to use a box. I'm so glad my boys haven't gotten to that level yet. I'm sure we will have that experience soon to come.

Nolan's classic cheeser smile. I think this is the thing to do for this age when a camera is present.

Now Lukie's turn to give us a funny smile. Big smile, weird eyes. I'm a horrible photographer.

It was a fun late afternoon with these two crazies. Nolan is still talking about putting up a Christmas tree. I try to tell him it is already set up. He chooses not to listen.
