We had a fire pit night last week in the backyard with some friends that Bobo decided at the last minute that we should invite over.  They were available, and he was so excited that he made this sign to put on the front door so they would know to come straight into the backyard.

We had a good time together.  We roasted hot dogs and marshmallows and ate chips and potato salad and talked and laughed together.  Nut Brown built the fire and it worked very well.  Mr. Brown has scheduled fire pits every other week so that we get to enjoy a bunch of them before it gets so hot we don't want to be outside any more.

Some more treasures from Rosebud.  So impressed with her interest in writing.

Rose Pink has started working at Sonic!  She carhops, takes orders, and makes drinks.  We are so proud of her!  She is learning lots of skills, and not just the ingredients of cherry limeade.  We also enjoy her stories about malfunctioning machinery and funny orders that people place!

Mr. Brown made cottage pie (shepherd's pie) for dinner the other night, the same day that we read about Esau selling his birthright for pottage in Genesis.  At dinner, Mr. Brown suggested that maybe a filling of lentils for the cottage pie would be an interesting experiment, and Rose Pink said, "That would make it pottage pie!"  Our kids are so funny!
