backyard fun and mom time!

Yesterday was filled with beautiful weather and whining kids. They wanted to go in the backyard sooo bad, even Damian which is rare. I was using my mom time wisely and finally doing some scrapbooking. I felt bad that I wouldn't leave my creative space but they had to wait for Daddy to come home! I was not about to leave my layout dangit!!



took only 2 1/2 hours. That's good for me. It takes me
awhile to get it right. Eric, Damian and Brandon in Santa Cruz, love these pics!




my last layout in October! Princess Mila!



Max's recent layout



Brandon never wanting to smile


After I scrapped for awhile I went and ate the BEST dish ever! Summer gave me the recipe for the yummy stuffed bell peppers her mom makes. OMG!!! I gave myself 6 points for it. ( That's WW lingo for the people who don't know!) I used meatless meatballs smashed up instead of the fake ground meat. Lentils, lemon juice and a little cinnamon. Heaven.



I could hear the kids laughing and playing outside with Troy so I decided to go see what all the fuss was about!



Ok..those little spots everywhere are BIRDS!! It was the sickest sight for me but the kids loved it! That scene went on for a good 5 minutes. They would come in batches, it looked like the sky was swarming with bees. Only boys would get a kick out of that!







They keep asking for their"wee" for the backyard. That's the word for play structure around here. We're getting it at Lowe's and can't wait to put that thing together. Troy's family is coming over and we're gonna make a day of it with food, putting the set together and finishing up whatever other projects we needed to do! I cannot wait!!
