Impromptu campfire

As we all happened to be outside near sunset on Sunday, I suggested that we have an impromptu campfire; perhaps our last of the season. Everyone (except Sarah) agreed that it was a great idea.  So, instead of a healthy meal, we had s'mores for dinner.  Hey, I never said I was a good parent.

This is the scene, "exposed" by the camera flash.  It really was dark outside.  BTW - that's ROOT beer in Gary's hand, lest anyone think he's gone astray...  :)

This is what it truly looked like.  We had lots of fun just sitting and staring at the fire.  Marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers helped, too.  Sarah eventually came outside to claim her marshmallows, but campfires aren't really her thing.  After all, this is the kid that won't let me light candles in the house, unless they're on a cake.
