A fun night

Last night we had a really nice night with friends. Some friends of ours were home on vacation, so we all got together to chat and eat and let the kids play.

Ava and Russell, holding hands and being cute!

Michaela had a fun time with the younger kids.

Rolling down the big hill was a hit.


We all circled around, moving a few times as the sun moved and hit our eyes. This group of friends have been together since high school, and could talk all night long, if we weren't getting so old and the kids wouldn't get tired!


Corrine loved her little chair.


Brian will get Zach back for this, I am sure.

I made a dutch oven chocolate cherry cake.


Micheala rolling down the hill.



We brought a couple of grills and shared dinner, which was yummy. The weather was perfect, and we really enjoyed ourselves.


We did this last year, and hopefully it will become a yearly tradition. Such fun! Thanks Nichelle for organizing our motely crew, we are looking forward to a game night!

That looked like a lot of fun. What a great idea! By the way, I really like your new photo of the family on your blog. It is super cute.

We had a great time!!! So glad another picnic worked out for everybody. It only makes sense that we would have a FAMILY get together tradition in addition to our ADULTS ONLY one. ha ha ha.
