Tired Boys Don't Make Trouble

I've been told that Rob's dad's motto while they raised their family was, "Tired boys don't make trouble." He took his sons to work with him (doing A/C) from the time they were about 11 years old, and apparently wearing them out that way was a pretty good approach!
Well, Blake and Spencer have gone to work with Rob several times recently, and they're learning what it feels like to hang out on a hot roof when it's 115 degrees outside, or to spend a few hours in an attic where the air doesn't circulate and the temperature can reach 130+. When they come home from a day with Dad, they have a much greater appreciation for a lot of things! (But I have to add, they still want to go again whenever he asks, which says a lot about how much they enjoy being with him!!!)
Blake has also recently started swimming as a Freshman. (Go, QCHS!) He has practice 6 days a week and gets some pretty good workouts. He's not one to usually nap, unless it's by force--so when I caught him dozing this afternoon I had to grab the camera. Looks like we're on the path to carrying on the tradition of Grandpa's motto--whether through work or through sports, we'll wear these boys out!
