Peanut Butter Pie

    We are really lucky that my sister does such a great job of sharing her time between North Carolina and Connecticut.  My whole family has been able to be a big part of Jax and Ace's lives, which is a blessing because they make everyone so happy.  Yesterday we had a great day together, visiting Captain's Cove and going on a pirate hunt.  Then in the evening we just sat around the fire pit making smores and enjoying being together.  Jax stared up at the night sky and asked my mom, "Mimi, how did the stars get to your house?  Did they drive?"  Ace was happy to roast marshmallows and laugh at the fire as he bounced from one person's knee to another. 
    We ended the evening with a dessert made by my mom, No Bake Peanut Butter Pie.  She has made this before and it is another great summer time dessert.
