The Aunties Come to Visit

It doesn't happen often, but when it does we take full advantage and spend as much time with the aunties as we can. This past weekend Sheryl and Jess came into town for Big Ro's surprise party, but they needed to stay hidden until Saturday night so we took them on the boat Friday night and then had a bonfire in the backyard until the wee hours of the morning.
It was a perfect evening on the lake. The water was warm and calm. We ordered pizza and swam all night long.
It was also the 3rd time in a week that we had pizza on the boat, but we tried a new specialty pizza and we were very pleased. We should be the spokes people for The Pizza Shack since we are such frequent customers.

Right before we headed in we took a little ride down towards Henderson and Leah was hysterical all bundled up in her cover up.

When we got home we fired up the backyard and invited the Voss' over. Since one of them needed to stay home with the girls they left it a surprise as to who was going to come over. We were shocked when Jen peddled up. Usually it is Rod, but Jen took the opportunity to get out and have a few beers with us on her own.

We broke out the pudgey pie maker and tried a new concoction...peanut butter and chocolate pie. It was totally Jess' idea and it was delicious.

We also served it on very expensive china...a Cheez-it box!

I believe Jen rode home at 1:15am, I went to bed at 1:30am and the rest of the die hards stayed up until 2am. I know I am only 33, but it totally kicked my butt the next day. It was definitely worth it though, we had some serious laughs.

Rocky also got some serious loving as he slept most of the evening in Jess' lap. He is such a lovable pup.

We should do Friday night fires more often, maybe work out some kind of childcare system so we can all hang out. Lots of fun!
