When Kit has to work late or he is out of town and won't be home for dinner, we pretty much eat dinner picnic style outside on a big blanket. On one of these nights, I stood back and snapped a few photos to send to Kit:
If I was a fly on the wall in our backyard that night, there was a lot that was happening that would have looked like things were unraveling into a muddled pile of a very tired family: Eden kept taking off her pants and putting then back on, she wouldn't eat without the glasses on, Ryder really wanted to use the sauce packets but couldn't open them but REALLY wanted to do it himself, and frustrations turned to laughter at watching Eden eat the hot sauce accidentally... As I took these little snapshots to share them with Kit, I realized that everyone was just having the best evening, laughing and enjoying each other and I realized that there is a fine line between pure joy and sheer chaos... and maybe this was one of those evenings made of both!♥
