Four o'clock fire pit...just because

I'm trying to say yes more to their requests.

So when the heat and humidity gave us a break and R asked to make s'mores at 4:00pm on a Thursday, I said "brilliant idea!"  

While I'm no girl scout, I did manage to start a fire (and I may have sworn under my breath a couple of times in the process).  But his melt your heart, s'more caked smile was so worth it.  

Soaking up his last few weeks of summer break!

and goodness, we have a marshmallow diva on our hands.

 But her pout quickly resided once she had that tasty treat in her hands.  Turns out she is not a fan of s'mores, but girlfriend sure liked to eat each ingredient separate.

 K is not a s'more loving guy, and after the 4th of July took some convincing to join us around the fire pit.  He thought we were talking about fireworks when discussing if we should do this or not...and little man was NOT a fan of fireworks.  After peering out the back window and noticing that there were no loud booming noises or explosions, he was quick to join us.
