Brothers...

Dave's cousins are the cutest. I'm serious...they're the cutest little boys you've ever seen and they are so sweet. They are best friends and their little personalities are so different but they compliment each other so well.

The boys went to visit Dave's parents (Uncle Mark and Aunt Claudia) so we drove down for the day and let Dave be the human jungle gym, all-time pitcher, all-time quarterback and virtual entertainment. It worked out well, the boys had fun and Dave slept like a rock the 2 days following...7 year old boys are exhausting!

While we were there, the men were firing up the grill and the women were standing in the kitchen gabbing when I looked out in the backyard and realized the deer had congregated for the evening. My in-laws have a gorgeous backyard that isn't fenced in and they have deer that show up multiple times a day. They came by once or twice while the boys were playing baseball but they didn't want any part of that. Now that things had calmed down they were coming in for dinner...

That's when I realized the boys saw them and "snuck down" as far as they could go in the yard. They were watching every move those deer were making. It was precious! I was able to get 2 pictures before the deer realized they had spectators and bolted.

I don't have photoshop, but I played with them a bit in Picasa. I can't decide which are my favorite? Horizontal? Vertical? Crisp and colorful or "warmified"? I could just eat these boys up they're so cute!
