pics, pine cones and pixie stix...

The other day, kind of at the last minute (and when I learned that it was nearly the last day of warmth) I gathered my family for their favorite (not!) activity of all time.

They threw things at me, snuck candy into their pockets, stepped on each others' fingers on purpose, etc.  It was a real slice of heaven on earth. 

Same as last year, I enlisted Jessi to stand in for me and then trade places.
That really is the best way to do this, if you're usually the photog and still want to be. :)




At least they put on a good face for most of the pictures. 
We went to Five Guys when we were finished and succeeded in trashing that one corner signficantly.  Came home, got a cold and was sustained as Primary President in the subsequent two days.  It's been a fulfilling weekend,  it seems.
