Here’s my crew!  Growing like weeds and soaking in the summer sun.

Every summer I attempt to coordinate outfits and get a semi-formal portrait of these guys.  Believe me, it’s not easy.  In fact it typically involves heavy bribery, a LOT of patience and almost always some crying. Atticus was all done before we got started and I’m pretty sure Bea ate a cup of sand and possibly a cigarette butt.  We did have fun though and it’s such a lovely record of  our kids at this point in their lives.  Last summer we didn’t even have Bea in the mix!  Wow, so much happens in a year!
