Let's Play

Sweet E boy came to visit today.


1st we played with this...



Then...we played with these....after that, he showed me this...

Then, I tried to take this away....but he just smiled.

Then he put these in here....

In the Kitchen, he played with these on the fridge...and ate some of these, too.
Grandpa came home for a minute to play, then he tried my glasses on....(very smart)

Then he looked up....and mom came in the door!

It was very good.

The McCullens

It was so nice out today that after dinner we all went outside to hang and a
baseball game broke out!!! (it is the American past-time, you know...)
I love these guys.

(click on the pics to see them up close and personal)

Even Sweet E boy got in the game...but then got distracted by the dandelion puffs that were in abundance....mmmm...yummy.

This is Jeff's impression of Alice Cullen....man I'm gonna miss this guy.

Where's my mitt?

Sweet- E boy and Danny came over yesterday to play.
They said,
"it's time for shorts and baseball". (I agree)

The grass is in need of some TLC...but the weather channel says another storm is coming.
(I can dream, can't I...green grass, planted garden, sipping lemonade...
don't interrupt me...
I'm dreaming.)

Kit secretly told me that Ephraim got dressed first...

Kit Kit Bo Bit Banana Fana Fo Fit Me My Mo Mit...

Today is Kit's 25th birthday !
(man I feel ol_....I mean.....established.) So of course CAKE is in order.

How I love cake. even the word is kinda yummy. I made this cake for Daniel's B-day last year and it was a hit...so Kit needed a repeat. ( last year it was totally sugared out!!)

sweety-boy was there, too:)

But.........You guessed it...I wanted to eat it... so it is all pretty Healthy, and pretty light considering the changes I made. I used a simple recipe from the Good Housekeeping Cook Book and tweaked it....WW flour and replaced the sugar with pure Maple. No processed sugar anywhere in sight. I can make a cake and eat it TOO!


My next goal is to try to figure out a sugar-free and dairy free frosting. I'm thinkin'..... "air".?

Happy Birthday GOOFBALL!
