The boys started gathering sticks & all for forts last night & so this morning they were all gung-ho about getting their school work done so they could get outside & get to work on their forts. Jon went so far as to even draw up his own blueprints for his! (which he gave me so I could scrapbook them ;-) He had drawings & measurements, etc. Pretty cool!
He went through alot of trouble to find these 6 forked branches which he cut so they would be just the right length.
Michael in the beginnings of his fort. Teepee style!
Michael says he has dinner... A locust which he pinched the head off of...this was learned from watching Survivor Man....if you pinch the head & pull, it's pulls the stomach right on out too. Now it's ready to cook & eat. Yum! (not)
Trying it out....just the right size!
Making progress...
Finally....all finished! 
And the view inside 
Michael is still working on his. He says it will be ready tomorrow. So stay tuned. ;-)

Wow! They did a great job. So, Amy, are you going to eat a locust?? LOL!
No, I'm saving them up & we'll cook them when you come to visit! ;-P
That is so cool. My boys would love to come over and play with your boys. They love watching those survivor shows.
WOW that is impressive!! Tell them boys they did a great job!!! My dad loves that show!!! Neat show but I am out on the eating bugs.
Mason cooked and ate grasshoppers in my kitchen last year and didn't even save me one. I was bummed. ;-)
OMG, Kaye....I forgot all about that! I remember showing Ashley the pictures!
