It's been freakishly warm in these here parts lately. So warm, in fact, that today I made sun tea and also noticed my daffodils have re-bloomed. Before we put our fire pit in the basement for the winter (to keep it from rusting, in case you were curious), we thought it would be nice if the kids could experience a night around the fire. It has typically been reserved for just Jason and me as a place to chat after the kids have gone to bed.
We'd had out Santa hats out in my attempt to get "the picture" for our 2009 Christmas card. The kids had to wear them and decided that we should begin the evening by telling stories.
Then they got the idea that they should get out their guitars to serenade us. They took turns each playing some children's favorites and some original creations.
They made Jason sing, too.
We had a snack and the sugar apparently made us get a little silly....
....then tired.
We had so much fun just the four of us. I can't wait to do it again, before they decide staying home with mom and dad at night isn't cool anymore.

Heather, I seriously got chills reading this. This is what family is all about. It is my favorite thing when it is just the four of us at home being a family.
These pictures are great. It's like I can feel the joy. I love it!
