We were promised some honest-to-goodness real Springtime weather over this past weekend...and sure enough! We got it! Right up to 70 degrees, sunshine, short sleeves and shorts, too!!
Our friends, Mark and Jen, brought their kiddos over to our land on Saturday...with Bailey their big husky-mix dog....that chased and ran...
panted in the shade for a few minutes with the kids....
then ran and chased some more!!
The guys continued to mill out more beams and lumber...
Later more neighbor friends, the Grants and the Dows, came over in the afternoon so we took the opportunity to grill up hamburgers and hot dogs... then roast marshmallows (of course!) over a bonfire. I keep wondering what my yard will actually look like once we have no huge logs lying across it!
We also lit up a grass fire at dusk. I know it sounds crazy but we burn our long grass in the Spring up here...just like the Indians did on the Plains...and it grows back amazingly lush and green!
Plus, it makes quite a show for the kiddos!!
