where have we been?

that's easy...outside! i feel like this is all i've been posting lately...but really, we just can't pull ourselves away from the beautiful weather to come inside and blog. well, i suppose i've also been bread-making...i've made 3 different recipes in the past 2 days...and found a 100% whole wheat one yesterday that is FABULOUS...we'll be using that from now on. i love knowing that my bread won't have any high fructose corn syrup or other preservative ingredients whose names i can't pronounce! i will post the recipe if anyone is interested...we found it online. anyway...to make up for the lack of pictures in my ten smiles, here are some shots of our past few days!

i think these might be three of the cutest girls EVER!

mugho--the bubble chaser...he goes NUTS for bubbles!

chalking, smiling, swinging!

this was dinner...if you click here you should find the recipe very soon...

i plan to post it right after this!

proof that i have LOST my mind. yes...there are 22 johnson buddie soaps in this picture...22! (i have gotten every last one of them for F-R-E-E with coupons!--actually i've "made" money with overage on almost all of them!) what makes me completely crazy...moments after this picture was taken i was at kroger and picked up 3 more....did you hear me say they've all been free! i promise i am starting to give them away...but i really can't resist them for free...especially since they are awesome! anyway...i think i have enough soap to wash a whole lotta kiddos!
