First campfire.


We went for a walk after dinner and had some time before bed. We decided, spur of the moment, to make a campfire in the yard and roast some marshmallows for s'mores. This is the kid's first campfire experience....

Dad builds a fire (while mom runs to the gas station for supplies).

Kids waiting.

First try. After this he kept saying, "I want more cookie, Mom."

Taking it all in.

Dad did all the roasting. Now Mom wants a turn.
We told the kids that we could maybe "camp out" here in the big red tent this summer.

My favorite moment and picture. A father teaching his boy to roast a marshmallow for the very first time ever.

The kids learned a little about fire safety, asked about what the crackling was, tasted a yummy tradition, and had some great family time outdoors.
