Roasting Some Marshmallows

With all this gorgeous weather we FINALLY got a big item off our "to do" list...A FIRE PIT!! We didn't do anything fancy, but it is perfect for holding a fire in and roasting marshmallows. We've had 2 fires out there so far and already have a glimpse at how much fun we will have with some family camping in the future. For right now it's nice to be able to have the conveniences of the house being right here because there seem to be SO many things the kids need. It is good practice so we know what all we need when the day finally comes. I think the best part of the night was completely "unplugging" and just spending great quality time together. We were really bummed when it was so cold this weekend and we weren't able to do it again. Here's to hoping next weekend gives us some more chances to hang by the fire.

What else do you have when cooking out....hotdogs, beans, and mac and cheese!

Ty put his hat on this way. Quite the character....

3 Happy Boys!

Showing the boys how it's done.

Ty's first s'more.

MMMMMM.....Yummy and gooey!

Not so sure...

No question as to whether or not Myles loves it.

Do I have something on my face?

What do I do now???

This was all Ty ate before he was done....More for me. :-)

Myles got his first try at roasting marshmallows.

Ty decided he didn't like the s'mores, but he DID like the graham cracker. So he ate an ENTIRE bag by himself....

Can't leave that crumb on my face.....

Yep....another one.

Happy little man!

Myles found a solution to the fire being too hot while trying to roast....get a longer stick.

Now that is the face of a boy who has had a fun night by the fire.
