They brought nets and shovels and collecting containers and archeological brushes (you know, to dust off the dinosaur bones?)
We shouted "adventure is out there!" (a la UP) and off we went. :)
It was only an hour; a walk down the busy, noisy street to a small "creek" that passes next to the road. But we found a ladybug and a baby earwig, discovered a tiny pine tree growing next to an old pine cone, ran relay races, ate our expedition snack, and collected dozens of rocks. I think it was probably the best hour of the whole day.

What a fun thing to do! Love it.
Wow, your boys are growing up so quickly. I'm amazed at how big they all are ... it's clearly been too long since we've seen them. We'll need to remedy that soon :).
Sounds like a fabulous hour! What fun for all of you!
You're a good mom. Boys need some adventuring in their lives. Well done.
Such creative parenting! I loved reading about your adventure.
