Weekend Family Fun

This weekend was full of outdoor fun.
We took in a baseball game in Northwest Arkansas.
 
My new phone has the panoramic shot option.
I'm not sure if I love it or not.
I love the idea.
However...see the guy in the red shirt going up the stairs?
Yeah.
He was caught several times in the one image....
Kinda creepy!
 
 
 
I wish I had seen it before we left. 
I would have tried a second time.
Oh well...I'll get it right next time.
 
 
I just love that he lets her be cheezey for pictures.

We also had a cookout with the family at the pond on Sunday evening.
Cookouts always include lots of...
FOOD
Family
Kids running around
Fishing
Laughing
Smokey air
Bugs (ewwww)
Dessert!
Here are a few pictures from this past weekend.

Courtney sitting atop the old fort swing set.
Waiting patiently for dinner to be cooked so she can have her fishing partner back.


Poor brother.
He had a LOT of math homework.
It went with us to the pond.
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
Finally...the food is finished.
Courtney has her fishing buddy back.
Cookouts are messy.
Cookouts take a lot of work.
Cookouts take a lot of planning.
 
But...Oh BOY, they are delicious
and SO worth it.

Super Bowl Sunday has arrived!

I don't follow many sports.
(unless my own kids are participating)
Mr. Incredible watches Monday Night Football with his brother and friends.
They meet at a bachelor pad or at a "Sports establishment."
 
Super Bowl Sunday is different, though.
I don't know who is playing in the game today.
I don't know what city in which the game will be played.
I do not know who the half time entertainment will be.
I have not seen any commercials online.
Basically, friends....
I really don't care much about the game.
 
With all that being said, though.....
The beans are baked.
The chips are purchased.
Warm, gooey, Mozzarella Cheese Pullapart Rolls are freshly taken from the oven.
Deviled eggs are prepped, plated, and ready to go.
A yummy, mouth watering S'mores pie is in the carrier ready to go to the car.
Margarita ingredients are ready to go as well.
 
I love the opportunity to gather at my inlaws for a SB FEAST! 
Heehee.
 
It doesn't matter which team wins.
It doesn't matter who performs at half time.
I might watch a few commercials.
I really won't konw the player who gets MVP.
I DO know that everyone will have happy, full bellies by the end of the evening.
Don't forget...
it's the little things that we remember.
I won't remember the details of the game,
but I certainly will remember a fun afternoon and evening spent with my family.
 
Go Team Schmidt!!
Super Bowl Sunday is DELICIOUS, my friends

I love Christmas Eve when the house is quiet and there is nothing left to do but wait for Santa and Christmas morning to arrive!
