Rafting the Kings River - Kings River Expeditions

Mack, Zeke and I headed north to Kings Canyon NP for some white water rafting and some male-bonding(we ate several packs of beef jerky on the way which led to a fairly impressive farting contest in the car). The Kings River was our dragon and we were going to slay it and it's Class III rapids.

Zeke was stylin.
Our base camp for the trip.
In the absence of video games, Mack and Zeke discovered horseshoes. Mack wants to build a pit in the back yard now.

The river was angry, but we tamed it. Zeke was a little nervous, but over came his fear, and had a blast. Mack seemed like he was in heaven the whole time.

Flag Football - Spring Season

Flag football season is underway and Mack and Zeke are on the same team for the first time. Mack is shining on both sides of the football, and Zeke is playing some stout defense as free safety.

Mack scored five touchdowns in their first game including 2 interception returns for scores. Zeke had a sweet pick-six too, returning it down the sideline with fabulous hair. Z and Mack accounted for 6 of their team's 8 touchdowns.

Mack(#27) returning one of his interceptions for a score.

Zeke's(#17) pick for a score...with fabulous hair.
Their second game was a defensive battle. Mack caught a long touchdown late in the second half for his team's only score. Zeke knocked down a final Hail-Mary thrown up by the other team to seal the game, 6-0.

Zeke usually just looks relieved that it's over.

Bo is also playing this year, but after last year's touchdown fest, they moved him up to the 7-9 year old team even though he's a few months away.

So far this season, he seems more interested in signaling people and waving "hi" to us than football. Well, it seems like he is having fun.

Easter Booty!

No words needed(beyond these words which explain there are no words needed).

Okay...a few from the good side.
