perfect picture of last night (w/o the pictures)

barbecued kabobs sizzling on the patio grill

bare bums splashing and soaking in the kiddie pool

boys dancing and parents dodging a whipping backyard hose 

giggles and grins from the littlest

tiny fingers glued together by golden brown marshmallows

chocolatie graham cracker smiles from little ones discovering the deliciousness of a charcoaled smore.  

a warm evening bath filled with 26 floating letters and 2 tired boys

goodnight kisses and whispered "I love you's" from tightly tucked toddlers

watching my swaddled baby drift off into dreamland

coveted alone time with my hubby 

conversation of dream homes and parenting and "yo mama" jokes and life's blessings

dozing off in our favorite, cozy, 'good night' position

what a perfect night.





ps. To keep you posted, I did file a complaint against our neighbors with our apartment's management. I haven't called the cops yet, but as soon as I hear or see something slightly fishy going on , I will call the cops. Our lease is up in three months. We're thinking it might need to move (for several reasons). Thanks for your input!

I liked that, you painted a pretty clear picture of a great night.

Glad you got the ball rolling on that kid busting into your place, that is very unsettling.
