We look forward to the Peters’ luau every summer where we dance the night away underneath the bright country stars!

The girls were having a blast the entire way to their house!

One more family pic before we let foot loose and fancy free!

My friend Donnette has a friend named Shelly who caters every year.  She’s amazing… they both are!

These were little star fish s’mores… so cute and tasty!

The boiled shrimp was my favorite, Mike really liked the Hawaiian lettuce wraps, and the girls enjoyed the teriyaki chicken kabobs!

The Pond Girls

The sun went down way too fast tonight (I always get such pretty pictures up on this hill), but you can still see how precious Rose looked tonight.  Anna Kate wore this dress to the summer luau of 2010.  So sentimental to me!

Anna Kate had a purple snow cone and so her mouth was purple all night (just the way she wanted it)!  She and Donnette’s little boy Luke had fun dancing together!

At the luau, everyone joins in and dances with everyone, and we have a ball!  The shoes come off, the live band takes over, and we all just dance the night away!

These girls were in heaven tonight… a state of pure bliss!  I never want to forget what these carefree summer nights feel like.  They are definitely what make my world go round when times get tough!
