A recent addition to our yard is a little fire pit. It was so easy to make, we simply had to dig a little hole and then we lined the outside with rocks. I have wanted one for a long time and am not sure why I didn't get around to doing it sooner.
Mara enjoying a S'more, isn't she pretty!? (even with the mudboots.)
We hope to cook outside quite a bit this summer. Hotdogs isn't a real common meal for us but the campfire doesn't limit us to that either. One night this week I made a stir fry and brown rice out over the fire. There are really lots of options like roasting a duck, baking bread, etc.. Actually I don't think we will roast any ducks but I do remember one time as a child when I had some friends over and we did just that. We are looking forward to getting creative with the cooking outside however. If you have any favorite campfire foods I would love to hear about them!

that looks like so much fun. We also have a fire pit, but it is not built in. In our town you have to buy a fire pit. I love mine though.
On my blog I am having my first ever contest, check it out!
Oh, how fun! I never would have thought of cooking stir fry over a campfire! What a great family time. :)
Oh this would be so much fun! We always love sitting around a campfire and toasting marshmallows or s'mores! How fun to do it at home!
