Dinner with the stars

Last night was just
another Saturday night,
but just for fun,
I though we could make dinner
an occasion to remember.
We picked up our usual pizza,
then I led them all outside
to a picnic blanket
with candles and music
out under the stars.

We ate
and looked for satellites
and checked out the moon
and Venus
through Austin's telescope

and indulged in

cheesecake bites

for dessert.



They asked if we could do

"Surprise Saturday"

every week.

But then it wouldn't

be a surprise,

would it? :)

Eating outside is the best. Way to take advantage of the weather before it's too cold.

Good for you! I still remember a picnic or two in the family room on Valentine's day in front of the fireplace. You really are learning to live in the moment.
