Boys will be boys!

Or at least that's what they tell me. SO the Burgess clan got together for Father's Day! After some convincing, all the Burgess brothers got in the pool with their kids. My nephews are getting older and apparently they felt they had something to prove, because what started as this:


Ended in this


Luckily the younger boys had enough sense to steer clear of the madness,

and I'm not tsure the girls had any idea what was going on, they were having too much fun with the best cousin ever, Ashley.



So while I don't understand WHY the "whose tougher" contest happened, it seemed to be some great bonding experience for them all, which just goes to show that I will never fully understand boys. The best part was that my nephews just kept right on coming, no matter how hopeless it seemed and there were a couple of times when it looked like they might be gaining the upper hand (of course that could be because they were up against a bunch of out of shape old guys). It was oddly heartwarming to see my hubby with all his brothers showing the younglings what's up.

Still I'm glad I'm a girl.
