The Magic of a Backyard...

After a non intentional four month break from trying a new bread recipe I finally got another made, thanks to encouragement from my fabulous friend Stef (Check out her blog The Forward Home)

Of course the girls were overjoyed, then again they love any sort of baking that goes on. The other day we made some rainbow sugar cookies that we found on Pinterest that turned out amazing, my new favorite recipe!  See it HERE

Here is Carmi taking her turn kneading.

Other fun stuff we do..er..the girls do and I sit there being entertained!

Try on Dad's clothes

 Lilli practicing to be a "teeth doctor" Isn't that pan a nice touch?


When Eric and I were looking for a place here one of our requirements was a backyard. We lucked out and got a fenced back yard, with a porch, and a swing. We love it!

Carmi made a little spot for all her flowers

Here you go!

That pose sort of makes her look like a body builder!

Peekaboo

This is how Lilli gets up onto the rope

Geronimo! The cutest thing is when they jump off together holding hands.

Bombs away! It sure is loud when they hit the porch...

We have a lot of these growing along the porch

And there is Jared, being cute as always!
