As the sun peeked from behind the clouds to stream into my twin's room. Mikey woke up to get ready for his usual morning run. He went downstairs and out the kitchen door to stretch. Later on, he runs down the beach. BD is waiting for his usual pet. They enjoyed this alone time together.

We broke up into our usual boys vs girls groups. Our girls and sisters cleared the tables. I wiped down every surface with a rag. Mikey washes the dishes to refill it with the wet ones. The guys are getting our cooler ready with drinks and ice.

Everything is put back in it's regular places. All the kitchen lights are turned off. Later on, we head down to the beach. Bon fire time begins right now. We settled down in our spots. Drinks are passed around the circle.

Storytime is in full swing now. A long break is taken to get refills for our drinks. Jokes are also told during this time. Our laughs are heard at each end of the beach. As the stars shone brightly over our heads as the fire crackled in front of us.

I walked back up the shore to our house. Upon my arrival left on the lights for the others and put my bottle in the sink. Within minutes I went into our room to change into my jammies and brushed my teeth. Mikey followed my cue. We changed rooms in our house.

Mikey is sitting next to me on the chaise. We are cuddling with each other. Seconds later he begins reading the book to me. I took it from him to read my chapters. There's one more passing of the book to it's owner. It is now rested down.

Within minutes the team came in dragging the cooler with them. My elders added their bottles in our sinks. As for the younger ones threw away their juice boxes in the bins. I unpacked the cooler. Mikey threw away the bottles and dumps the ice. As for the team heads upstairs to get ready for bed.

The team is in the room. Everyone sat down on the couch or in it's surrounding areas.. Our tv set is turned on. John chose something from the box for them to watch. He puts extra volume for us to hear from the living room.

We stretch our legs after a while of sitting down. Everyone stood up to mention goodnights to each other. Mikey gave me the usual forhead kiss. The team did the same thing just with my cheeks. I sat in our window seat.

Mel went to bed. Both of us moved over to the couch. Mikey is cuddling with our big sister. I am sitting on the ground between our couch and the coffee table. Nat is matching me over on the other side. His long fingers are running through my hair.
