Saturday Evening

Using some of the coals from the big fire earlier in the day, we had ourselves a nice hotdog roast for supper later in the evening.  It was fun!  And after a bit we realized we were sitting around the fire pit, roasting hot dogs, and enjoying a nice winter evening.  Ironic, but awesome!

 Biased parent speaking, but really - how cute is he!?  Holding his plate, eating picnic food, and loving it.  I'm loving his little legs straight out.  Again, how cute!!!!

 Karey

 and Myah...loving the hot dogs!

 The kiddos!

 The fire.  And the not-quite-two-year-old who did really well and listened to the "don't get too close" warnings.

 He was in full-out inspection mode.

 And he was all over the place!

 He'd run down the little hill to the field to inspect the other fire's progress and then come running back up.

 Very interested in the smoke.

 Jenna, Lance, and Myah.  Krista was enjoying a weekend with her mom and sisters.  She really missed out on the fun!

 Loving life (and the hill)!

 Group shot.  Good thing the timer went before Mason got too close to the camera.

 Yep, you guessed it.  He had a nice drink and then dumped the rest on his shirt and shorts.  No big deal!

Checking out the smoke...

 I love his stance in this one...

 Looking at Lance to see if he sees what Mason sees...

 Marvelous!!!!

 Go Lance - got the fire to go up the tube.

 Silly face.  Wet child.

 Yep, still burning.  Thanks for checking on it, Mason!

What a way to end the night!  It was a wonderful, fun-filled day that has us very much excited for the warm days of spring and summer and play time with friends and neighbors.  What a treat the warm weather was...while it lasted!
