"Marshmallow Madness" a short story written by our homeschoolers

Once upon a time, our family started a campfire for an innocent evening of relaxation.

Little Katrina said: "we need smores!"  So Mommy ran inside to get the smore stuff: graham crackers, chocolates, and of course (the star of the story), marshmallows!

Marie said, "Daddy, may I please have a marshmallow?"  Daddy hands over a marshmallow; Marie carefully puts it onto a stick, and toasts it to a perfect golden brown.  Daddy then carefully removes Marie's hot marshmallow.  Marie takes one bite of her perfect marshmallow, sets it on a plate to run in for a glass of water, and returns to find Daddy with a sticky, smiley grin.

Marie is VERY mad and throws a marshmallow at Daddy!  Little Katrina starts giggling and throws a marshmallow at Daddy too....just for fun:)

Marshmallows start flying everywhere!

...Until Marie comes out with her secret weapon.....the JUMBO MARSHMALLOW SHOOTER!

She prepares the shooter....1....2....3....BLAST OFF!

Everybody watches as the marshmallow flies, right into Fido's BUTT!  Fido gets this funny look on his face...then...

1....2.....3....BLAST OFF!!!   (Fido toots:)

and the marshmallow flies right into Daddy's face!!!  Everybody watches Daddy: "Yummy, that was really good, but it really needs graham crackers and chocolate!"

THE END
