Perfect Way to End the Summer

For this year's Labor Day celebrations, my cute mom and dad decided that we would have smores then a giant family slumber party!  In the morning, my dad made his mom's famous ableskeevers for breakfast and we had our traditional "anything goes" day treasure hunt.  Besides the fact that it was an unbelievably fun couple of days, I could not help but marvel at how unbelievably blessed I am.  My family is my world and between choosing and naming stars with the little ones, and watching my mom read the newspaper comics as my dad picked peaches from the peach tree, I was truly content.  I felt so much peace - like if anything in my life went wrong, I would be okay as long I was leaning on the Lord and these people who I love so dearly.  I can't wait to have my own little family and for them to get to know these people!  They probably already do. :)  I just love them so much!  Did I mention that I love them?  We are a family built on the foundation of Christ.  We are Happy.  We are ETERNAL and I am so grateful!
Here are some pictures of our family fun!!

Around the fire (we only used brickette coals so my dad referred to it as a "sabbath fire")!

Our very own pyro.

Star-gazin'

Yup, good morning!!

He worked on that hair-do all night.

Yes, that is me trying to wake up.

I love that the babies are so cuddly in the morning.  

Mmmmm

Lookin' for clues on the treasure hunt!

Each of the kiddies with their Book of Mormon heroes clue, and there's the treasure box!!
