wishing i had $300 to do this. looks fun eh? anyone want to do it with me... and pay for me too?

bored and not feeling good leads to this.... Be funky.com

i'm pretty sure i'll be wasting some more time here.

looky what i found! a whole blog dedicated to artwork based on where the wild things are called Terrible yellow eyes! These are a few of my favs. Check out more here. i love them all but this is perhaps my favorite.

oops forgot this one which i love...

My kids have been going bonkers the past few days. they are driving me nuts following me around the house and destroying things i have just cleaned. it is to hot to play outside for a long amount of time ( says them, not i )

My boys really get along well for the most part but they have been fighting non- stop. Ezra will say something and Eli will say " no" and then they will bicker back and forth until someone eventually gets punched or bitten. sooooooo we decided to take a "break" from every day life and just have fun. we met my mom and friend merilee and went to draper park for the day. Merilee brought her fancy camera and took some great pictures.

the boys admiring mr hippie rockstar up close and personal. Merilees boy Parker was so funny about the guitar. We watched him sneak closer and closer until he was right next to the guitar.



i love this picture of hayden and ez searching for snakes

handsome baby boy


parker and beebye

this picture makes me laugh so hard. abe is not so fond of cold water. every time we would try to put his feet in the stream he would lift them up. silly goose!

We had lots of fun. Thanks merilee for the awesomely amazing pictures!
