S'mores, S'mores, S'mores!

Who doesn't love a s'more?! There's chocolate, graham crackers, and marshmallows. What's NOT to love? We had a bonfire out behind my parents' house quite a few nights during our stay in Washington. There is something so relaxing and peaceful about sitting around a bonfire. Josh especially loved making fires with grandpa and eating roasted marshmallows and hot dogs. He wanted to do it every night, of course! Every little boy's dream come true! And every grandpa's dream come true too! My dad loved having bonfires just as much as Josh did, maybe even more. And what was even better, they slept outside in the tent together after enjoying a good bonfire. I hope all these memories stay with Josh as he grows older. We had so much fun!

Hot Date With My Boy

I've wanted to go on a special date with Josh for awhile now. I feel those one-on-one moments are so important. Especially if that child is no longer an only child, those moments can be crucial to them feeling loved and noticed. The two of us had an action packed night full of Burger King, feeding the ducks, playing at the park, and last, but not least, eating something really yummy at Dairy Queen! Josh was being his usual goofy self for the camera and loved getting a toy with his dinner. I can't even tell you how much fun we had together, just the two of us. It is a tradition I will continue thru the years with all my children!
