Mike's Favorite

Rarely does he get very excited about photos, but Mike did get pretty stoked when he saw this one. I, of course, love it also. I'm not sure what it is that got through to them all of a sudden, but just so you know it's been nearly three YEARS since I got a shot of them both looking at me. That'd be when Cody was a newborn if you are wondering. Haha!
Anyway, earlier in the week, I was just having a horrible time making myself stay home. I guess I've just been feeling so chipper lately that I am getting bored very easily. I couldn't stay here a moment longer. I took the boys into the base to just do a couple of little errands - oh yeah, buy those plants that were half off that will probably die in a month to never return.
Mike had grabbed us a sub at the commissary, I picked up our lunch from him and then took the boys to do something I've been promising for ages but always put off. It was spur of the moment, Kade's idea, so...why not?
They've been wanting to have a picnic and watch the airplanes take off. I saw several of the planes revving up on the runway, so I figured it was a good day for it.
We went out to the end of the runway, in a field and had a sandwich in the back of the car. They had so much fun running around free and watching the planes.
Somehow, they decided they'd be nice and pose for me a few times too.
What is funny, is I think they're getting a bit carried away with it now. I love it just the same though. Its the type of thing I've always dreamt about! Now if they'll only do it for me when I have them decked out in outfits for the occasion. These are certainly great though, very "them"!

Ah anyway. I yap enough don't I?
Here's one.
THE picture.
I promise, I will get around to posting more and sharing the LOADS I have from Shannon and STeph's visit!




See, all I actually asked for was, "put your arm around your brother and look AT me." and they gave me this. They have been messing with me all this time haven't they?
