We have the coolest friends. Just sayin. They call you up, invite you to Sandy Channel for a BONFIRE. They bring a stinky dog and smores stuff. What's better than that? Not very many things. So after Roger and I got off work we headed to Elm Creek for "The Fire" (as Brinley called it).

| The Waterhouse family doing the worship music... wonderful! |
Caleb went into survival mode and brought all sorts of stuff that would make scout leader proud. One of those things was (what's it called?) a flint (?) stone. Basically one of those things that you scrape and it makes sparks. Anyways-- he was teaching Gage to use it and showing him how to start a fire. (Good idea? I'm still not sure...)

Hopefully Brinley didn't learn anything
Gage caught on QUICKLY! |
 |
| Still working on that fire... |
 |
| HOORAY!! HE GOT IT! |
 |
| One was not enough... he started on number two! |
 |
| Nice little fire! |
 |
| Tending the fires |
 |
| "It needs more wood!" |
 |
| It really got going! |
 |
| The after-effects of a bonfire... oh my! |
Thanks again to the Waterhouse family for arranging the bonfire- perfect night! We love you guys!
