These words could have been written just for my husband :) He grew up in the country, riding motorbikes, swimming in the river, and lighting fires in empty 44 gallon drums. Even though we lived in town in NSW, he still had a fire drum in the backyard, and would light it every chance he got.
It turns out that living in a city is not a deterrent either :) I walked outside late one afternoon to discover this happy little scene...toasting marshmallows in an empty tin can, propped up on an old vase. Honestly! I was still laughing when his mother rang, and she had a laugh with me. She was teasing him on the phone when I took these photos LOL.
For his next birthday, she sent him a Bunnings gift card, along with a Bunnings catalogue with several pictures of fire grates hilighted :) She's such a thoughtful Mum!
I've used Fancy Pants Wishful Thinking Memories paper along with a Basic Grey Doily, some October Afternoon stickers, and a little Basic Grey Lemonade chipboard bug. The alphas are Basic Grey and Heidi Swapp.
Hope you are having a lovely weekend!
