Volcanizing, but not really.

Diet Pepsi & Mentos, work your magic: (note what Sweet Pickle says, and my nice tinkling laugh)


A man and his volcano:


Still shots of dinosaurs in volcano land.
Peaceful Before:


An unfortunate demise:

PS - ...now I may be sayin' this cause I'm a yankee and all...but your husband sounds like Matthew McConaghey...totally.

Unknown said...

Unknown said...

Y'all are the best parents EVER!! You tackled that experiment like pros...I'm so proud to call you family :)

Not only am I thrilled that y'all did the experiment and beat every teacher to the punch...but you FILMED IT for my viewing pleasure, which it was! I loved every minute of it...his excitement, his comments, even the awe in Eden's face :)

Cool! But where were the fleeing villagers?

P.S. I think my girl is in love with your boy - she was RIVETED!

That is totally precious. And I'm always shocked when I hear southern bloggers. Did your husband say, "Set this on far?" !!! Very sweet. I'm sure Noah would like to be the one to drop the Mentos and pour the stuff.

Oh, where do I start??? Jodie, this was the best thing I've seen all day. I love hearing my bloggy friends talk! I know Sarah and Mama Belle where saying your hubs sounds like McConaghey, but he reminded me of Harry Connick Jr. And your tinkling laugh was lovely, just lovely! Sweet Pickle could not have been more excited if he tried...that was just precious. :)Ok, I may have to go watch them all over again.
