O' What Do You Do in the Summer Time?

I'll tell you what we do...we roast hot dogs and marshmallows, even when it is 90 degrees outside.

Summer O' Fun activity #2 occurred yesterday. This time, the mother decided to take a turn planning the activity (perhaps my guilt trips have finally worked). She decided we were going to go to "Beer Can Flats" and roast hot dogs and have smores.

While I was driving to meet the family, I got a phone call. It went something like this:

Me: "Hello."
Am: "Hello. We are going to our house. There's a dead raccoon up here and it stinks...stinks real bad."
Me: "OK. I'll see you in a bit."

So Beer Can was out, you know because of the dead raccoon and all. Since the rest of the family had to make their way down the canyon by now, I arrived at the destination a little early. I got out of the car and was serenaded by the neighbor's mariachi music. So I sat on the lawn and enjoyed the sounds!

A few minutes later, the rest of the family came and we got the party started.

Jar built a fire in the pit and I may or may not have said numerous times, "It's only 90 degrees outside but we're building a fire." And then the roasting commenced.

This was Mr. Msters first time roasting his own marshmallow. He did a great job.

The boys decided to take a break in the wagon.



Two Summer O' Fun activities so far...we're already well ahead of last summer. Take that 2010!
