Saturday morning Brother had ice skating lessons again. Once home he discovered the ashes in the chiminea. The boys played in the ash (tried to make cement) and Sister was VERY sad that I wouldn't let her play in it, too. Instead we sprinkled some on my garden and in the flower beds.
The boys used charcoal as chalk. Note: it's November and the boy is still barefoot.
Since my kitchen is cooler than 78* now, I have to melt the coconut oil. Below you can see I'm scooping it from a 5 gallon container into a mason jar that is in a pot of warm water.
Saturday afternoon he read for a very long time. (Friday afternoon the kids and I went to a used library book sale. ) Sister played in this blow-up raft that was stowed in the garage.
Up the street: boys playing football in the yard. Look closely because I was too lazy to walk up the street for the photo.
Hubby has worked all week(end) to prepare notes from the Bonhoffer book for Dennis Rainey. Eric Metaxas is coming to FamilyLife for interviews this week.
The weekends are too short!!

Love the pictures! How I wish I could have enjoyed the fire with you. How peaceful. Excited for John C. to interview with Eric Metaxes.
I'm such a geek because I was totally trying to see what books were in that photo! Thanks for linking up.
So where do you purchase that massive bucket of coconut oil?
Looks like shaved ice in that scoop.
Jenni - I order online from Mountain Rose Herbs. Coconut oil has a 2 year shelf life and we use 5 gallons in about 8 months. Shipping is crazy for this stuff, so that is why i buy 5 gal at a time. The price has gone up recently b.c the demand has increased but the supply has not. Some expect the price to go down when the new crop comes in (not sure when that will be).
