After a trek into the woods with our young daughter to cut down a tree to use as a pole, the entire SERE crew based in Italy showed up at our house to turn our yard into a training area.
Okay, there's only two of them, but they are really close. Really close. Seriously, what's going on in there?
Tying it off.
It was taking too long, so I resorted instead to taking pictures of my eldest monkey, who's hair looked darling after Mommy and Me time in the bathroom with Mommy's new hair straightener. 
And she was definitely still interested.
Isn't he handsome?
Cooper gets a lesson from Claude on how to tie a knot. Just what we need around here.
I'm telling you, life does not ever get boring around here. Plus we're building relationships with all the local Italians! We do weird things, and they stare!
"I sure love this pole we cut down."
Even sitting around in chairs is more fun when there's a parachute in your yard!
Unless you're one, and then sitting still in a chair is never fun, parachute or not. Helmets, on the other hand, always fun.
"Wait...what is that? Is that a...parachute?!?"
Jesse and the kids had spent the night before in the backyard in a tent (another SERE bonus: continually obtaining new tents that then need to be used and compared to all our other tents). Payton and I slept inside, because I like the finer things in life. And also because this is how Payton reacts to tents:
Apparently they are not safe, even when wearing head protection.
