Family Fun Evening

Back in May when it was a little cooler, we had a fun evening hanging out, and I took lots of pictures!

It started with some scootering...

The flowers, at the time, were just starting to get good too!

And then we decided to have a campfire in the back yard...

What is it about fire that draws people to just sit and stare...

I love this picture of Max... his smile and sweaty head...

And then we made up courses to run for time...

Zoey went first...

Those are targets and clay pigeons in the background... We technically don't live in the city, so we can shoot in our backyard! These were set up for our Cinco de Mayo get together.

And next went Max...

And Ross, serious and competitive...

I expect nothing less.

And then me, and this picture totally looks like I am posing, right? I am actually running (trying to go fast) but while keeping my flip flops on... I think I came in last.

And then the team race...

Way to lean into the turn, kids.

Max is keeping Ross in check on the turn there.


And then, more FIRE!

This one looks like a dancing figure, I think.

As it started to get dark, we made pictures with flashlights. I really needed a tripod, for these shots, but you can still get the idea...

I told Ross to do something sweet, like a heart...

And then he went and took the G rating off my blog...

your mother would be so proud (Hi Bette!)

And, moving on...

and then it got dark and the crazy bugs came out...

Those flashlight pictures are really cool! And of course I was cracking up at Ross's picture.
