This is how we roast smores.

We roasted smores on the beach on Saturday night and Sunday night. On Saturday it was just me and my kids; grandma, VV, Lindsay and Maya went up to Canon beach and shopping.

Luke was the fire-master! He and I collected up all the firewood and he was my right hand man for getting it going. He felt about ten feet tall, being in charge and all. It was nice, sitting around a cozy fire, right on the beach with my children. We chatted and ate and enjoyed each others company.

On Sunday night everybody participated and it was really fun. Somehow we started singing random songs and my cousin Lindsay whipped out the Barbie song and forever impressed Lily. Lindsay indulged a little girl and sang it over and over again, including of course the voice inflections. Lily giggled, tried to sing along and sat in awe of the whole thing. This whole thing led into us singing other slightly inappropriate for children songs. We got to witness first hand grandma's dance moves too. Something that everyone should in their lifetime get to experience. All I'll say is it seems that her students have been teaching her some of the latest moves.

BTW, we now own the Barbie song and most of the members of our family have all the lyrics memorized.
