So, I just saw @double 's post about his son catching him assembling his new small and taking it over and the pic he posted of it. I thought it was a great idea, so I thought I would expand on it and provide a place for others to post pics of the children/grandchildren being Eggucated... Afterall, if this is a cult/lifestyle, we should pass it on to our children... right?  :D

My daughter got a small for Christmas last year... The first thing I told her about grilling was "you always have to have a drink when you light the grill". She takes off running to the fridge and comes back with two juice boxes! Its been a hoot ever since...

    Very nice family, don't envy the thought of twins, but I'm sure you do well. My oldest helps me prep but hasn't really gotten near the Eggs while cooking as he's borderline Autistic and sometimes loses focus. But he loves putting pizzas together and seasoning meat and such. 
    I raise my kids, cook and golf.  When work gets in the way I'm pissed, I'm pissed off 48 weeks a year.

    Beautiful!

     The twins both look like "Hey, the dolls are cute and all, but we're getting minis later, right??"

    Thank you all for your kind words!

    Scottborasjr - Prep work in the kitchen is still quality time that is irreplaceable in their minds. I really enjoy passing on one of my passions to the next generation.  :)

    calikingdouble - That's how I sold SWMBO on the Mini we have now... "It was for the babies!!!!"

    XLBalco - Twins are a real handful, but I would't trade them for anything! There must be something in the water around here... I could name one or two sets of twins in the area my whole life. Suddenly, there are three other women in the area that we know of pregnant with twins.

    My son did his first successful overnight smoke at the age of 8.  Fire held temp all night long and the pork butt was fantastic

    Nice job, get 'em involved young. Four year old grandson loves to get his hands into that mustard slather.

    So, you're telling me that I can get another egg if I tell the wife that Santa bought it for the kids. Oh wait, I have twins too'! Have to keep it fair. Better get two more!

    Too cute!  I'm sure my son would love to use the MAP torch to light the egg if his mom will let him.  

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.
