Sleepy Creek

Yesterday, Kevin and I took the boys down to Sleepy Creek for some outdoor fun. Little did I know, that I was entering a "war zone". The boys would get in the kayake and travel a ways down the river, as they called it. Kevin would then proceed to throw "bombs" at them. Chandler named every type of "bomb". A big rock, which made a huge splash, was called an "A-Bomb". If several small rocks were thrown at the same time, that was called a "cluster bombs". If Kevin would skip the rock down the creek, that was called a "torpedo". They played this for hours...and it was quit entertaining to watch.
After the war was over, Kevin and Chandler found some interesting creatures in the creek. We found crawfish or as Chandler corrected me, "crawdads". They also found several baby salamanders, a baby bass, and a baby scorpion. They boys had a great time playing in the creek and can't wait to go back again.
