Summertime Sleepover With the Grandkinds







The grandkids have been looking forward to spending the night at Nammie & Papa's house so they could create a tent to sleep in and roast marshmallows in the fire pit and create smores. (Yes, it was in the 100's, but we still did it!)

They swam all day and into the evening and just when it got dark, Rod fired up the pit and the roasting began. As we all do when working with marshmallows on the end of a wire hanger, a lot of them caught on fire and went into the pit. They had a blast. I can't believe each of them ate two huge smores. (They are going to be up all night!) It was a good thing we roasted when we did, because not a half an hour later, but a huge monsoon thunderstorm rolled in and kept all of us up most of the night. We had a non-slumber party. The only one that slept through the whole thing was Daniella.
Casey played around with one of Cadence's loose teeth and pulled one out. It was the 1st tooth Cadence lost.

Papa & Nammie's thoughts about the evening: these kids really keep us young!
