Whistle Punk Ben & Lumberjack Gavin

It's a wonder why these two aren't married yet, just look at 'em!

Maybe it's that little glint of obnoxiousness in Ben's eye...and the fact that he's wielding a hatchet in his hand. He's leaving in the spring for the Navy and I'm quite nervous, but excited for him at the same time. In the mean time, Gavin and I are trying to see him as much as possible before he goes. Of course, that's easier said than done. It's hard to see him when we want, between school, work, and financials. Gavin still runs down to southern Kansas about every other weekend to work around my parents ranch, so Ben and I have a tendency of communicating via him, sending each other gossip here and there followed by gifts of endearment, which usually entail home-cooked meals from him and artsy trinkets from me. Usually, I get the latest scoop on all the kinds of obnoxious behavior the two get into when I visit with my mom. Last weekend? Fixing a bulldozer, chopping wood, breaking a bulldozer, and coon hunting, no less. Oh the excitements of the bachelors taking the prairie by storm!

If only I could witness half of the nonsense they do on a day to day basis.....okay....so maybe it's a good thing I don't....

Anywho! I need to get back to my own shenanigans with Gav-o, dumpster diving on campus! (always a classic)

enjoy your week!
