Fire Pit

Aaron and Andrew decided we needed a fire pit for the backyard.  We have such a great time roasting hot dogs and making smores.  It is so fun to build a fire in the backyard and pretend we are camping.  We love to sit around the fire and talk and look at the airplanes fly over head or the stars when they start to come out.

Saturday we decided to make smores so Aaron built a fire.  Little did Andrew and I know he rolled up sparklers from last 4th of July and put it inside the cardboard.  It made a great fire!  Our neighbor ran across the street to check on us and make sure our house wasn’t on fire since he heard all the crackling.

Enjoying the hot dogs.  This is one of Andrew’s favorite things to do, roast hot dogs and marshmallows. I guess a boy’s love for fire starts at a young age.
