Even

Over the years, the boys have come across some interesting things on their walks. When they were pups, it was way worse because anything they found they tried to eat. Now, they are a little bit more selective. Key words: little bit.

Of everything they have ever found, Henry takes the cake for stumbling across a whole peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Henry found the sandwich on a hike in Maryland. It was slightly off the trail and I had never seen Henry get so excited about one of his finds. Unfortunately, we didn't let him eat it, because what is a peanut butter and jelly sandwich doing on the side of a hiking trail. But, even though Henry did not get to enjoy his spoils he still held the title of best food find while on a walk.

Henry has held his title for 10 years now, but last week, Benjamin finally earned his own set of bragging rights when he came stumbled across a peanut butter and jelly sandwich of his own on his morning walk. Benny didn't get to eat the sandwich he found either, but he was so excited to tell Henry that he isn't the only one that has found a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Of all the things that we have ever found on a walk, never once did I think that we would find another pb&j sammy.
