Big Brothers

On Monday my older brothers were here.  It was a quick trip, less than 24 hours, they were here on business to pick up wood and antiques for their homes and store out west.  My dad has been scouring the local auctions since late summer, buying up all the goodies and storing them in his bedroom and office.  They were about to take over the house, so my brothers arrived just in time!!

I hadn't seen them in a while so it was exciting to have them here.  I pulled out my camera to play around while they decided the best way to pack up the trailer.  I totally annoyed them, but in the end they were good sports.

This rocker almost didn't make it onto the trailer...it was tempting to keep.  We were tempted more than once to keep a few really good finds from the auctions!  My dad retained a desk and I kept a round table that's a real cutie!

Ephraim aka Epher

Luke was in little boy heaven...the guys let him crawl all over the trailer and jump off the sides!

My dad was being a total punk.  This is him posing for me...totally in jest.  He loves to poke fun at me when I get my camera out.  He wouldn't let me take his photo.  I have about 9 photos of him with a finger or hand hiding part of his face and I had to listen to his little boy "I'm getting away with something" snicker...such a stinker! 

I asked them to get together the 3 of them so I could get a shot of them together.  This is what I got...they just couldn't cooperate with me.  How hard would it have been for them to sand side by side...aargh!!  They're lucky it turned out half way decent.

I love this pic of Epher!  He sat down for me for a minute and had fun with it!  He was the only one who didn't mind me taking pictures, but he's laid back like that, a good sport! 

Thanks guys!  

I'm glad we were able to visit and have lunch together.  

See you next summer!!
