We caught up with some dear friends the other weekend.

Dear enough that we were actually willing to get in a car and drive a wee while and spend the night with them, even though I really don’t want to even catch a glimpse of a suitcase right now.

We took some pictures in the backyard. Especially of one particular fella that we’re fond of.

I like that one even better! Good luck getting three kids to look the same way at the same time.

Here’s the favorite:
