Around the Campfire

Cody had this genius idea that he wanted a firepit. our old neighbor had one and it seemed pretty cool.  He wanted to be able to roast mallow's and such.  So we went on the hunt Monday for a cute one. Lowes didn't have the one Cody wanted, so we settled on the cheapest one (fine by me!!) We went to walmart to buy groceries and came home to make tin foil dinners and smores. It was SOOO much fun! It was like the joy of camping in our front yard!  The kids thought it was great and loved the fire...but not too much. 
Asa started this thing where he has to make funny faces for the camera. He insisted on having his eyes closed. And Lexi is rooting around for droppings. Dumb dog. 
Meema joined in the fun.  If you zoom in you'll find that Asa only has one eye open. He says he's a "cappin"
The one eyed thing again.  But it's a great shot of the fun we were having outside in the yard around the campfire.

We had the fun of sitting around the campfire eating and talking with NONE of the clean up involed with actually camping. It was a great way to spend a Monday night!
