Backyard fun: Battle of the Sticks






Now that the weather is more enjoyable we have been spending alot of time outside with the boys and they love it! Gavin and Grayson have discovered their love of sticks and with over 12 full grown trees in the backyard, they have quite an assortment to pick from. They each found a prized stick and then proceeded to "fence" with each other, play attack, and march around with their sticks. I swear it's in their DNA to just know that boys play with sticks! It was very cute watching them. Gavin has a love of sting rays and his own "imitation run" of them. Grayson has learned this "sting ray run" from watching and they both act like sting rays running around together. It's quite a site to see! Gavin is still in the process of teaching Grayson how to ride the mini quad. Grayson gets on and off with no help needed, however he doesn't always hit the button to make it "go!" Gavin decided to jump on the back and help him out....it was one of those hallmark moments for me watching my sons ride around in the tress together on the mini quad. So sweet! Greg and Gavin enjoyed some play time too. All in all, we have a blast together outside.
