Backpacking

Matt and Braden are in the midst of planning a backpacking trip with their buddies.

One of the first things they were needed was, of course, a backpack!

The kids and I found a United States Marine Corp issue backpack at a garage sale for $15.  This was quite the find, as we've seen them sold online for about $250.  This was a huge blessing and Braden was so excited about it that he ran around with it all afternoon.

Needless to say, although I don't have a picture of him, Matt was pretty excited about it, too!  He was quite proud of my bargain:)

Since then, Braden spent his hard earned money on his own backpack for the trip.  They are so looking forward to this trip!
