Mixing Fire & Weirdos...

Friday, July 30, 2010


....is rarely a good idea.

We got lucky...

We were at Lowes the other day and saw these little fire pits on sale...
We've talked about buying one for a few years now, but there were always more pressing things for our funds. Plus, I didn't want to spend money on something we'd use once or twice and then would be more yard clutter... Alas, the little ones were under $60 so I relented to family pressure and we bought one.

Well, Sparky and the Axeman were so excited they set it up right away...

She even whittled points onto "marshmallow roasting" sticks...

And they were right it was a lot of fun... We sat out side all evening...


We talked... We laughed... We made s'mores...
We exploded confetti poppers...
(It's not quite clear why we did the last one... That must be the weirdo part...)

We didn't want to go inside...


Unfortunately it started to "smell like rain" so we cleaned up a little and made it in just before the storm hit...

Good news, most the confetti dissolved in the rain...
Bad news, so did the half a box of graham crackers I forgot...
Whoops...

We can't wait to use it again...

Thanks for listening,

  1. Ooooh! I want a fire pit so bad! I loooove s'mores! We might wait until we get our own place. Looks like this was a blast!
