Ride that Train

Hey Silas! Hey Merritt!

Treasure hunt

Since Luke was the only one home today (Nate and Henry were playing at a friends house) Bryan decided to go on a treasure hunt. Luke just happened upon this very old treasure map and it appears that treasure was buried near our house! What luck! So Bryan and Luke canoed to the shore of an island where Luke found a big X made of sticks. After a bit of digging they found it!

Looking for treasure

Luke finds the treasure!

Tailgate fun

Clemson game days are so much fun thanks to these great friends that we get to tailgate with. The kids have a blast playing together and so do the adults! Go tigers!

Mrs Worsencroft

Nate's third grade teacher from last year lost her mother in a car accident this week. His class planted a Japanese maple in the courtyard in honor of her. Love this school!

Mama said they'll be days like this...

It's been one of those days..... Discipline issues with 2 out of 3 boys, homework issues with 2 out of 3, injuries involving blood with 2 out of 3. Cooked a dinner that was a failure, all the way down to the unleavened bread that wasn't supposed to be unleavened. Shall I go on? Because I can...Bath time ended when I heard someone yell 'cannonball!'. But now everyone's in bed and tomorrow is a new day and I'm happy to have spent the good and bad times with my boys. Life's joy is found in these little moments, even the not so good ones.

Happy first day Luke!

Preschool

Like starts preschool tomorrow. This will be his third year at golden corner. He is in class with one of his best friends Kami. Hope he's this excited about school tomorrow when I drop him off!

Buzz cuts

This was Luke's first buzz...I'm bribing them with lollipops for this picture!

Baconater

Henry almost ate two pounds of bacon this morning. Scary.

Back to school

Nate is thrilled, Henry is not. Poor Luke isn't feeling well. Happy 'back to school' day oconee kids!

Man week

It may have been shark week on the discovery channel, but it's been "man week" in the Duncan house! Bryan took the week off and they've been on all sorts of adventures. Canoeing on lake tugaloo, hiking, and shooting guns. So sad school starts on Tuesday.

In the morning...

He will be 4 years old!

Eeewwww!

Found this little guy playing possum when I went to bring cats in. For a possum, he's kinda cute.

I love boys!

Pancakes and bacon after Wes and Will sleepover. So glad Bryan's finally got a day off!
