The other day Grandpa Lloyd was outside burning a fire. I'm not really sure why. I went looking for my kids and they were out there no shoes and no coats, but I figured they must not be cold so I let them just stay. A little while later I had to run up the street to get some things from a lady in the ward and they were both heading inside. Darcy says, "Mom we need madamadas." So I am racking my brain trying to figure out what in the world she was trying to say. Luckily, Kale came and said, "Mom we need marshmellows. The fire is smoking and its the perfect time to burn marshmellows." I figured Grandpa had told them to come in and get some so we got them some marshmellows and shoes and coats and I sent them back outside. But I decided I needed some pictures.
So when I got out there this is what I found. Kale using a branch off of a dead pine tree for his roasting stick and no Grandpa. It was apparently their own idea because Lloyd was down on the farm feeding cows. And as you can see there is still snow. It was actually really cold.
Darcy didn't want to roast her marshmellows, she just wanted to eat them straight out of the bag
From this picture you can see there was no more fire. It was just smoking so I think all he got was smoke flavored marshmellows. Oh well at least I didn't have to worry about them catching on fire.
When I got home this is where I found them. Grandpa Lloyd had come home and I think he must have felt bad for their attempts to roast the marshmellows so he brought them in and they roasted their marshmellows over the stove. The funniest part about that was when they would get brown Kale wouldn't eat them. He just wanted to warm them up a little I guess. They are too cute!! They have been spending so much time outside. I don't think they can stand being in the house any longer. Thank goodness most of the mud is gone so I don't have little mudballs when they are done playing outside.
