Bonfire
Last night we planned on having a bonfire, but since it rained all day of Friday, we decided that it would be a bit wet so we had an indoor bonfire. We had about 12 or so people come over for a cookout, where I cooked some burgers and hotdogs on the grill and then just hung out for the rest of the night. We then burned some wood in the fireplace and played some wii and had a good time. People stayed over and hung out till around midnight.
Saturday was a busy day as well. Corrine and I started the morning, with choir practice and then Corrine and the girls went out for lunch, and since it had rained the day before Rob and I decided that we should have the bonfire anyway and burn the brush that we had acquired for the past few years. So we burned a lot of the tree that Rob cut down the week before, along with a whole lot of the brush that we have been building up for the past 3 years. While Rob manned the fire Corrine and went off to learn how to make dumplings at a dumpling making class. It was a lot of fun, and we got to eat a whole lot of them, they were pretty good. We then came home from the class and helped Rob and John finish putting brush on the fire and then we ended up having a pile that was about 12 feet in diameter of ash and embers. Then we all came in an played some more Wii. Great weekend of fun.
