Yesterday we went on our weekly, Sunday afternoon walk on a paved trail here, close to our house...there were these black beetles everywhere (I think they were stink bugs, except for the fact, our kids were picking them up like crazy and never once got sprayed) oh well, they were some species of beetle, that are quite proficient at making more of their own kind. We came upon two of them that were, as Annie put it, "giving each other a piggy-back ride" I calmly and maturely stated that they were mating. Too which, Alec gave a little laugh and then Nathan said..."well I guess these two are on their honeymoon"...that made Andy and I both laugh out loud, since Nathan knows NADA about well, any of that. Andy then asked Nathan well what do people do on their honeymoons? Nathan replied..."they celebrate and just do anything that is FUN!" This made Andy laugh even more. We continued walking and Annie and Elisabeth kept pointing to all the beetles that were grouped by two (there were many) and said "oh look, they are on their honeymoons too!" They really were everywhere and so Andy and I decided maybe it was time to just go home...we obviously missed the sign that said:
"BEETLES HONEYMOONING AHEAD"!

hilarious! i love your kids.
Nathan was pretty acurate with his Honeymoon description! Funny story, thanks for sharing!
how cute and innocent. love it! maybe you all should make the sign and post it for other families to beware of!
I have to laugh. Brenna had one of those moments but it was the horses "mating". She asked what was going on, Delv and her uncle Tracy said breeding. Not too long after that she asked us if we were gonna breed soon so she could get a brother. She was 8. Crazy kids.
PS way to stay calm.
Tyson and Zach thought that was hilarious!! Do the boys have email addresses? My boys would love to correspond with them if they do. Let us know!
How cute!
(And, I'm not really much of friend of nature, but if I were there, I would have smooshed the honeymooning beetles, but very carefully so my children wouldn't notice).
Oh goodness!!! That is too cute and hilarious, you didn't see the sign because it was written by a beetle and was just a tad small.
thanks for the good laugh today:) so funny! can't wait to tell mason that your family had the privilege of seeing beetles on their honeymoon:)
Oh, I'm laughing so hard I can hardly see the screen to type my comment. Isn't innocence great?! Thanks for sharing this cute story with all of us and being the great parents that you both are... I love being the grandma to such sweet children who see life in such a positive way. You and Andy are doing such a good job... Keep it up!
