FHE: Mother's Day Project and S'mores


Tonight for FHE we decided to fire up the grill for the first time this year. And what do you know, our charcoal that had been sitting in the bottom of it all winter long still worked. Cool. While we waited for the grill to warm up, we all worked on some Mother's Day projects. They are currently top secret, but we'll post about them later.

After that we took our shish kabob sticks out and used them as marshmallow roasters. I don't think either of my kids have ever roasted a marshmallow before. Sad. Lincoln thought it was great and kept getting really excited about the "fire". Ivan just wanted to be up where he could see everything that was going on.

Since they've never had marshmallows before, I guess this is their first experience with S'mores too. All I can say is that it's a good thing tonight was bath night. What a sticky mess. Ivan had a hard time getting past the sticky factor, but he eventually did eat some. Lincoln loved it and had it all over his face and hands and clothes and everything else that was close. Aaron and I enjoyed ours thoroughly as well. :)
