We ended up having a spontaneous cookout and patio party tonight because Greta and Daniel arrived suddenly. It happened like this:
1. David gave me a new fire bowl for Christmas.
4. Then we just had to try it out.
5. I couldn't get a fire started, so David and Jared stepped in.
15. It was very fun.
2. Heather and Jared borrowed my van to move some furniture today, and the boys stayed here with us while they did it.
3. Luke and Patrick helped me put the fire bowl together after lunch today.

6. We needed more logs, so Jared tried to chop up our huge tree sections with a teeny, tiny hatchet. It didn't work, so he went to Home Depot to buy a real axe.
7. Then of course he had to try it out and he ended up splitting about a dozen of those logs into perfectly split firewood.

8. Finally Jared and David got our rather damp logs and kindling dried out enough so they would burn.
9. The fire got going very nicely.10. Heather posted a picture of our campfire on Facebook and Greta was curious what we were doing.
11. She said they would come over too.
12. We decided to roast hot dogs and make s'mores over the fire.
13. Chuck went to the grocery store to buy the food we needed.
14. We roasted and ate and roasted and ate some more.
15. It was very fun.
