Final Days of August!

Here we are in the final days of August of 2011.
Hope you and yours are healthy and happy!

Here are more pictures from the 1st day of school- had to embarrass the boys well, huh! It is so wild to drive pass the elementary school in the mornings... we've been stopping there for over 15 years - LOL! The boys are STILL loving school!




The best thing about having all BOYS is not spending "an arm and leg" on clothes and accessories - but today's tennis shoes are (OMG) expensive! Here's a pic of the boys NEW shoes for school. And now it's only BLACK socks - white socks are so "uncool" - hmmmmm!
















All I got for starting school was new nail polish - hee hee! Black "crackle" nail polish - here it's over red. Should have got the white "crackle" - then put over blue for BOBCAT SPIRIT on Fridays! Pretty cool - but chips easy! Only got a couple of days wear out of this style. Boo!

Here's a quick recipe swap for ya - we ate this yesterday for dessert. YUM! Of course, we used lots of Cool Whip - KV picked out all the fruit - geesh! Boys liked it!



It's SUPER easy! And makes for a quick dessert or snack - only 3 ingredients! Got it from the Pioneer Woman (did you see her new show on Saturday? - fabulous!) She calls it her Cuppa Cuppa Cuppa Cake... it's from the movie "Steel Magnolias"! This recipe is like a cobbler - but so simple! Try it -
