"What are you up to?" I asked.
"Caleb and I are going to play war, " she responded.
"War? Do you know how to play that?" I asked glancing over at her.
As she bounded away to get geared up, she threw over her shoulder, "Nope, but it is the only thing he will play with me."
When you are the only girl with three older brothers, desperate times call for desperate measures. So, you dig out one of the myriads of play guns shoved into an overflowing storage tub and grab a camo backpack stuffing it full of essentials, like a blanket and a doll. Because you never know when those might come in handy when you are involved in war games in the back yard!

DANG, rock it sister!!! I really adore these. What a great time to catch with your kids. And that face of hers on the wood pile. I was cracking up! I'm really glad you said what was in her backpack too because that's all I could think when I saw it in the first shot. Awesome set!
