I made it - the final stretch - the boys are finally in bed - here's how it came to an end...

1. Chase started walking down the deck stairs - one after another - and he tumbled down them. Thank goodness for his blankey blue.
2. After tears the boys started playing together - the pictures are proof.
3. IN-N-OUT for dinner, we ate outside.
4. Baths and Toilet Cleaning and Pajamas
5. And then, just before everyone was in bed - James remembered that I had promised we'd do Boggle for Family Night - we hadn't and we dropped everything to keep the promise.
6. P-R-A-I-R-I-E-S was the best word.

So, a little past bedtime, we still made it! I am sure there will be a few "last" good-nights ahead - the later it is, the harder for them to fall asleep.
