Marshmallow Fly and Fry

Our area has endless amounts of family friendly activities. Some are for small fees but most are free and some are quite unusual. Kevin heard of one of these slightly unusual activities at a nearby park so we decided to load the kids up in the bike trailer and head on over.



Once the bikes were ready to go we headed to the Marshmallow Fly and Fry. You heard me right. We had to check this one out. When we arrived we noticed the ladder truck.



Now they raised the ladder out as far as they could and all the kids lined up and...






you guessed it. They tossed over 1,000 marshmallows for the kids to gather and then trade in for prizes. Our kids each collected a marshmallow and traded it in for suckers and stickers. They were quite proud of their prizes. Chase also quickly noticed the bounce house they had set up.









We knew there would be a fire to cook our dinner over so we came prepared...









That was one HOT fire and my "skewer" worked really well because I didn't have to stand over the fire like most people once I figured out the best place to prop it. After eating our dogs and some chips, Kevin went back and made some treats with Chase...






Yummy s'mores! After eating Leah decided to "roll" down the hill...



Wish I would have gotten that on video, she doesn't quite get the concept of rolling. We had a wonderful time at the Marshmallow Fly and Fry and look forward to more fun activities to come.

Love that, uh, hug? at the end. :)

Since you guys like Nutella, you need to try it instead of regular chocolate on your s'mores. Look for the JIF Nutella with the peanut butter.
