dinner and a frog..but not together

I was finishing up dinner last night before my trip to Emily's so she could fix help me fix my sewing machine kookiness.

It was a tad too quiet outside for my 4 kids and their Dad. I knew they were up to something.




Please ignore the BROWN grass. We're too lazy to water that far back.





yes that's a tiny frog, they invade our yard at times, and yes that is a rubber band on my husband's watch. Don't ask.





Max is our outdoor kid. Loving the bugs, loving the dirt, being one with our yard.



Bye bye frog. That was a hard good-bye for Maxie. He wanted to still play with his buddy.

Checked to see if anyone else wanted to see the frog. Nope. Eric was taking a break from reading.


.....................

So last week we embarked on a dinner date with the family. LOVED it. Had so much fun and the kids were so excited. I felt truly blessed and happy looking down the table at our family.

I forgot my camera of course so we resorted to pics from Eric's phone.




The mandatory cross-eyed photo of my brother with one of my children.











Yeah. LOVE cell phone pictures. Yuck.

But I have the photos and that's what matters!
