Matching Boys

We're looking forward to cooler weather.  Hot days and evenings make for rowdy boys inside.  Recently, we took advantage of a cool weekend evening, and had the boys play in the front yard to burn off some energy before bed.

With the boys all in red shorts (a fun coincidence!), I thought it would make for a cute picture.

I should know better.

First, I asked for them to stand together...which just resulted in falling/pulling/pushing over...

I tried again...this time they knew it would be funny (to them!) if they fell together.

Then, taking advantage of them already laying together, we tried using that pose...

Then...we gave up.  I didn't get the "perfect" picture I was aiming to get, but we did capture our boys perfectly!
