damage control

The last several days my kids have been on another destructive kick. I think it's the stir-craziness... it's too hot to go outside for most of the day. Fortunately we have big plans tomorrow (and by big plans I mean visiting the playground in the mall).

And fortunately I have this guy...
(that farmer's tan cracks up my inner 12 year old girl)
...and he left all this in the fridge!Beth, you'd better hurry or they'll be all gone! Haha JK I think somebody might kill me if I ate them all.

best ever

Jared and I made hot fudge coconut shakes today... They were the best I'd ever tasted!

We used chocolate ice cream, milk, hot fudge, coconut flakes and a few drops of coconut extract. I would love to try a plain coconut shake sometime because the coconut extract worked so well.

Jared is making cheesecake because Beth is coming out this week... I should probably just give up.


p.s. I posted an album on facebook with pictures from this summer, including camping at the reunion and more pictures from Independence Day. I'll continue to add to it throughout the rest of the summer.

Polaroid Sunday

Our afternoon in pictures... There was napping, eating, twirling, fort-building and a whole lot of mischief.Oh Shannon. Classic.

holiday


Our Independence Day weekend was pretty awesome. We're very blessed. I'd promise to write more about it later, but I kinda hate that I rarely follow through so I'm just going to forgo saying that this time around.

Remember Poladroid? Instant nostalgia.
