Marshmallow Guys

I wanted to make a little gift from the Boys to our loved ones, something the kids could mostly do on their own, homemade and heartfelt. Check out what we came up with:
The cutest little marshmallow friends you've ever seen!

But before we even got started, we had to taste test all of our ingredients for freshness. Only the very best for our family and friends!

Everything passed our taste test scrutiny!

Now to get started.
Spear three marshmallows on a candy stick.

Apply icing in the places you'd like the tiny M&M's to stick.

Be sure to eat twice as many M&M's as you apply to your snowman!

Viola!

We made tiny snowman hats out of Oreo crisps and gumdrops. After making this first round (which actually ended up in the trash due to all the spitty fingers involved!), we washed up and got quite a system down for snowman assembly.

They turned out so cute, and we had so much fun working on this project together!

Here is Yaya accepting her personalized snowman friend created just for her. I think she likes it.
