Second year Day 155 - Friday May 17, 2013

We've been burning slash piles at our place this past week or so.  We always did have bonfires pretty regularly at the log house, and Bridgett always loved them so, I thought she'd enjoy this.  However, initially she didn't even want to go out to see the fires.  She said that they are too noisy.  I explained that it wasn't very noisy and that she could just go check it out and then come in.  Finally she agreed to go out, mostly because she wanted to walk outside and the only way to do that was to walk by the fires!  Anyway, she then saw that they weren't very noisy and that they are kind of fun.  She never wanted to watch them too much, but she definitely didn't have to miss doing her walking because of them.  While we stood around and watched and talked, she walked back and forth up and down the driveway!  It was cute today, because usually we all walk together.  Today, she and Stephany did some speed walking and jogging while I talked to Mark for a bit by the fire.  They are super cute together!  Arri was inside doing some English (online course this summer).
