Family by the fireside

Times like this are my favorite! Chillin' with family, no rush, good conversation, and kids' laughter in the background. The $10 firepit has more than made it worth the effort. My brother and sister and my nieces came over around 6ish. We had some chips and salsa while the kids played and waited for Tim to come home. The boys got the fire going and we had polish sausage for dinner. So awesome. Minimal cleanup for me too (thanks to Sam)! Later we got around the firepit for marshmallow time. The boys were later left to chat alone around the glow of the fire, while Sam and I took the kids inside for a movie. Before we knew it, the time was 11pm! Staying up was so worth it, I enjoy my family so very much. God is good!



This little miss is 9 months already! She has quite the little personality!

The brothers talking business

Sam showing Miah how to roast the perfect mallo. She was very eager to make a special one just for her daddy. Miah is turning into quite the little lady, she is a big helper every where she goes.

These two don't fight as much as they used to. They spent most of the evening playing in the sand and laughing at each other.

And eating sand.
