Home On The Range??

Why is it that no matter how I cook hot dogs in the house my kids still dry heave at the thought of having to eat one??? But...if I stoke up a fire, and give them a dangerous pointy stick to roast it on it's the best meal they've ever eaten...
















Even Grandma and Grandpa got in on the roasting action...

Notice the double dangerously-pointy-roasting stick method used by my mom...
Don't try this at home. She's a professional.






Here's dad demonstrating the correct technique for roasting the perfect marshmellow...

You'll notice it's not the flame and blow-out technique that most of us use.



Grandpa smiles for the camera...

I'm sure he was just thinking that we had all lost our minds...

Maybe I have, but I can't speak for the rest of them.

How true, the fire pit makes all the difference. Least ya know that Lucy loves your hot dogs :)
I love your layout! It reminds me of you!
Your grandpa is darling... I just adore old people, and always have. 91? What a trooper!

Hey, that looks so fun, and just think had you not had a blog to share that with us all, we probably would never know it happened. I just love it! Can't wait to see you!
