I love it!

This picture is so funny. It is funny to me, but I don't know if it's the "you just had to be there" type of funny. One night last month I decided to let the kids eat their dinner outside. We took a giant blanket out in our front yard and had a picnic. It had just started to cool off at night and it was actually bearable to be out there. It was starting to get dark and I told the kids we needed to head inside. They begged to stay out a few more minutes. Right when I snapped this picture I was telling them about the bats and how they like to dive at your head. I love their little scared faces. They were all terrified and ran for the door. I took them on the front porch and we watched the bats fly around for about twenty minutes and then the bats were gone. When it was dark enough Neal and I took them back outside and made a bed on the grass and we looked up at the stars. I showed them my favorite constellation and they chose theirs. It was a great night. It is simple moments like this Neal and I will never forget.

THAT IS GRANT IN THE FRONT???? Because he looks JUST like Landon in that picture and I have never seen him look like Landon before.

On a different note... I love that we both find it hilarious when our kids get freaked out.
