Angry Bird Smores

It was a BEAUTIFUL day here today - high in the upper 70s and mostly sunny.  We spent almost the entire day outside.  Brian and I worked on yard projects while the kids played in the yard.  We were outside by 9 am and I didn't come in until almost 6 pm.

By that time, I had no energy to cook so we decided to use the firepit to cook dinner.  We've had fires in it but never cooked in it before.  And "cooking" is a stretch - we really just heated hot dogs.

I made some macaroni and cheese inside that was quick and easy and dinner was served.  It was still pretty warm outside so we ate out there and enjoyed every last minute until it was time for the boys' bath.

After dinner, we made mini Angry Bird smores using Angry Bird graham crackers, mini marshmallows  and Hersey's chocolate bar pieces.

I need to get some roasting sticks because the best I could do were fondue sticks!

The smores were the perfect size for little hands - especially those that don't like to get dirty!

Carter took one bite and then the boys proceeded to eat the ingredients - Carter had mini marshmallows and Rylan ate chocolate graham cracker sandwiches.  Brian and I were able to sneak out a few pieces of everything for ourselves before it was all consumed!  Our boys are so bad with trying new foods and food combinations - even new junk food!
