Fire Pit


From about May to September we have almost a nightly ritual of lighting the fire pit in the backyard. This Saturday we invited several families over for brats, s'mores and a little kite flying. If we were true dairylanders we would have served beer and fried cheese curds too. The new tree house grandpa built was a big hit with all the kids.





We changed things up a lot tonight and cooked some good hot dogs instead of brats.

Hey Lisa,
Am I ever going to hear back from you? I'm beginning to think you're ignoring me. Hope to hear from you soon.

My GOODNESS Woman, I want your yardage.

I see from the last picture that you live close enough to Minnesota that Prince would come visit you for a smore. I didn't know he had dyed his hair brown!

(Yes, you can hear the veiled hair envy in my comment.)

Look at that sky! It's beautiful out there. What a nice tradition you have. I wish we lived close and could come over too (and talk politics...just kidding). Is Mike almost done or what? Where are you moving?

Wow that looks awesome. I love s'mores! Hmmm... maybe we need one of those firepit thingies.

Oh, my husband. I was reading that comment, and didn't realize it was from "us". You have a great back yard. Is that an open field behind you? There are perks for living in WI?
