It was Chris' birthday last April, and Riley and I decided that we wanted to get him a fire pit for the backyard; what a great idea that turned out to be!
We packed up our kitchen and firewood and headed into the backyard and roasted some hot dogs and marshmallows...just like camping, but the convenience of a toilet and sink to wash sticky, marshmallow covered Riley. It was so much fun...it was even cold like when we are in the woods, thanks to this rainy June weather we are having.
When I was a kid, we always went in the backyard and roasted hot dogs and marshmallows, and I am so excited to pass this fun onto Riley. Riley was so excited and keeps asking when we are going to build another fire.
Chris and I are going to build a better place for the pit so we can go out in the summer and just sit around it on summer evenings and chat....so much fun. Come on over....we would love to have you!
Notice how by the end of the evening Riley has a coat on and a crazy tiger mask....somehow she morphed during the evening.

First, this is an awesome idea! Second, the tiger mask is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI'll be over tomorrow night! Get the fire going and I'll bring food!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. I really need a fire pit by the pool. That would be so fun! Treasure that special little girl...that grow up so fast and soon you realize that it is only you left at home. The laughter from your kids is such a wonderful sound!
ReplyDeleteI love sharing things with our kids that we love.
ReplyDeleteMaybe when we are in Utah? We can met up?
Riley is the cutest thing ever. What a fun gift to give our hubby. What fun times!!!
