Our 'Sweet Time' Tonight


Over dinner tonight, Nathan's fortune cookies couldn't have been better said, especially since it was a Monday…our Family Fun Night. It read, “Your home is a pleasant place from which you draw happiness.”

Tonight’s fun and new activity was Nathan’s plan…riding bikes/scooters to Joe’s Farm Grill for dessert. Yummy! Our destination ride only took about 20 minutes with Baylee on her scooter and the rest of us on bike (Owen on the kiddy seat behind me) anticipating what we were going to order. Baylee and Nathan each ordered root beer floats, Jon and I shared the Cream Puff Sundae (photo), Jon also ordered onion rings, and Owen asked for a small sundae. The kids were mostly excited over the three different flavored/colored cherries they generously gave them! Talk about pigging out! Hopefully since we rode to and from the grill, some (I know not all) of those calories shed away.

Our ‘sweet time’ came to an end as our friend’s Joe and Cindy (owners) arrived and we chatted for awhile longer on the lawn just before our ride home. It was a beautiful Family Fun Night under the stars and in the wonderful weather (have I said, “Boy I love living in Arizona…at least this time of year!”)

Why did we ever leave you? We are watching the snow melt, while you are enjoying a bike ride and wearing shorts.JEss and Meg are both coming home this weekend, so maybe we will talk our 20 and 23 year old into a family fun night. Miss you
