Marshmallows - A Year-Round Treat

Today we went out to play in the snow that we got over the weekend. It took about 20 minutes to get all suited up for the snow, and then after about 15 minutes outside, Addison had had enough, so we came back in and warmed up with some hot cocoa.

While the girls noshed on marshmallows, it struck me ~When was the last time they'd tasted a marshmallow? This summer, when we went camping with Doug and Kirstin! And did I ever post pictures from that camping trip? No, I did not! So here you have it, a Summer and Winter fun-times post!

First Up: Marshmallows in July 



Earlier that day...

We camped outside Keystone right by Lake Dillon

Heading out for a hike

Our camping buddies Doug and Kirstin

Wading in Lake Dillon

Emily touching the water
Addison got right into the sand (and ate some of course!)



Addie's big accomplishment was climbing over this log at the campsite again and again!

Emily loved swinging in the hammock with Kirstin

She was still a knee walker back then!

Getting ready for dinner

Uncle Doug, making a fancy camp dinner, as usual

Addie says, "mmmm chips!"

Where there's food, there are happy toddlers!
Walking with Dad

Camp Fire!

Getting ready for bed

Breakfast time! 
Addie kisses the tree bye bye

Another little hike before heading back home

And then come Marshmallows in November!

Hot cocoa tastes best topped with marshmallows, and it feels best in your belly when you're still a little chilly from being outside on a cold day.
Marshmallows straight up...mmmmmm!

Earlier...



Gotta give it a taste test

Emily wanted to trample all through the snow

Addie was ready to get inside for her hot cocoa!

  1. I love this post! All of it! Emily and Addison are just so cute, and it was fun to look back in time a little. The snow video was just too cute for words.
