St Pat's

Jake was very concerned (for a few weeks ahead of time) about "weprechans" who were going to pinch him if he didn't wear green on St Patrick's Day.  Despite my assurances that I would not send him to school without green on, he continued to be anxious about it to the point of having bad dreams about the "weprechans", etc... His imagination got a little carried away.

Here are the boys on St Pat's Day.  Getting a good picture of them both in the same shot is damn near impossible these days, and that's ok. 

Jake is making a wish with a dandelion.  A million bucks says he's wishing for Hamp
to quit crying in his ear. 

both boys love this axe equally.  I think it came with a toy fireman get up
Jake got a few birthdays ago.  It has stood the test of time.  One can't predict these tings.
This is a very handsome picture of Hamp. :)

This is one of my favorite pictures ever in the history.
Jake has an axe and looks to be doing some sort of battle cry and Hamp is having none. of. anything.
