Sunrise.... Sunset....

The weekend was great.  It was fabulously quiet (except for Lucas cutting open his head while trying to go swimming) (he's fine by the way).  We spent Saturday evening at my parents making sandwiches and doing a puzzle while the boys watched cartoons.  Sunday was church, naps, and then we decided to go somewhere to dinner - and settled on the Boat Shed as then we'd be looking out on the water (we have to keep the boys entertained, right?!).  And they were entertained and it was nice.  Calm, quiet, not like our family outings usually are.....
There was pointing out of boats and ships out on the water....
The discussing of all things important in a little boy's life....

And Lucas' infamous "Yooouuuuuuuuuu  see that there?!" when the sunset came into view.  
It was gorgeous, over the water and magical.  Ethan said it looked like "someone painted all over the sky."  I totally agree.  And now, all week long, we've been in the car and seen numerous sunrises and sunsets and for the boys and I, it's magical every single time.
And there's also real life too.  Busy days and busy nights.  Ethan made his first real basket and made four of them!  We are prepping for his first basketball game this week - so excited!  And Lucas has been involved in a week-long Dinosaur Train reenactment around the house.
Life is good.

You do so many crafty things with these guys that it took me a few seconds to realize that he was SHOOTING baskets not WEAVING baskets!

HAHAH! That made me laugh Sherry! Nope, no underwater basket weaving for me,though it sounds cool!
