The kids were rather unsure about this whole event. Rebekah and Samuel have roasted marshmallows one other time at Grandma and Grandpa's but this is such a different setting, I'm not sure if they would consider the two events to be all that similar. This was the first time for Jacob and he was most puzzled, to say the least.
I finally gave up trying to nurse Paul to sleep (as it was past his bedtime) and let him sit and enjoy the family fun. Surprisingly he seemed rather interested and did not fuss much. . . until his blanket started falling off.
Mmmmm. . . .marshmallows. . .
Jacob is not so sure. I was not quick enough to capture the really good faces he was making (I was trying to hold Paul at this point and still take pictures) but he cautiously took the treat of absolute yumminess. . .
Here Jacob just got some marshmallow goo on his fingers and he looks at us as if to say, "Are you sure about this?" And I'm thinking, "You revel in making a mess of your dinner but you are sticking your nose in the air over a teeny-weeny bit of marshmallow gooey deliciousness?"
Jacob finally tried it. . . and it was very good!
Samuel only wanted the marshmallows - not the chocolate or crackers - No, I don't know whose kid he really is.
Rebekah - mmmmmmmm :)

Fun times!!! Good for you for just giving up on bedtime. There was a time in my life (pre-Kolbe) where I would go down with the ship on that one and it. was. miserable. It's much nicer just going with the flow.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had such a nice evening. Looks like you have a wonderful hubby/daddy in your family. What a blessing!!
