fun friday, 4.26.13...

THANKFULLY this is all that is left of last week's big snowman!  Spring weather is finally here with lots of ...

SUN!!!!

What is that strange warm bright thing in the sky, momma?

Friday afternoon was sunny and warm (72 degrees F!), perfect for swinging...

and running around with the puppies from next door (this cute little 11 wk old was visiting, she is Mrs. L's daughter's new puppy, Harlow)!

All that running around called for a yummy snack.  I had leftovers in the house from when G and Aahma R made rice krispie bars for GEMS Sunday last week, so I thought why not try a cute idea I had seen over Easter somewhere in a magazine...

1. Mix up rice krispie bar recipe adding in M&M's (we only had 5 left in the house so we threw those in and some chocolate chips)
2. spray inside of plastic easter egg with cooking spray
3. pack the rice krispie mixture in both sides of the easter egg - really pack it!

 4.  sneaking is allowed (when momma says its ok =)
5.  when both sides are full, put them together - you will really have to smash them!

6.  open the easter egg and be amazed and wow'd when a rice krispie egg comes out!
7.  as the momma, make a mental note that if you want these to turn out as pretty as the magazine article, you should not use chocolate chips instead of easter M&M'.
8.  best if eaten outside!

We did one more little project (boy, nothing like some sun and warmth to get the creative out!), but you will have to wait til later this week to see it!

You could have broken into the stash on your bookcase. That would have been acceptable.

Thanks Aunt Karen,I am so glad! And I didn't even think about the bookcase stash, Dad. Also, the "kid" bottles have been re-arranged again too!
