enjoying the last days of summer

Well yesterday was Alex's orientation.. Today is Nathaniel's. Then next Tuesday they start school. They are nervous and excited and ready to go. They are also enjoying the last few days of summer with their sisters.

They like to pretend to be palaeontologists... :)
excuse the dirt... he will be showering before orientation tonight..

adventure time.
Nathaniel picked me the tiniest pretty little flower...
any idea how hard it is to get a clear picture of something soooooo small.... not easy!
