An Afternoon of FUN!!

Mushroom Hunting!
Here is my oldest boy (Chi 10) and oldest girl (Halee 8)
With Chi's only mushroom find. (I'll add that he found 1 more than me!!)
It's really hard to see. I put a box around it!
Here are the troops!
I think 3 grandchildren are missing from this picture. I was shocked that my almost 3 yr. old walked the entire time. Up hills and down, only asking to be held 1 time. I just did some distracting and away he went again running ahead!
They had a great time together, only problem was I don't think they bothered looking for mushrooms. They did however manage to step on a few!
So this is what we found, no we're not hiding any, this was it! I love mushrooms, only problem was when you split these between 7 adults and a bunch of kids you get ONE bite! But man was it a GREAT bite! I made it last as long as possible!
**
So do you love fried fresh mushrooms? Do you hunt for them?

Could it be Tuesday again????
Well I've been able to get my workout in everyday! I skipped Sunday of course but all the other days I was able to do some kind of workout. I would have to admit that a couple of the days I only got my sit ups in, but that's the area I need the most work!
**
Yesterday we tromped through the woods for 2 hours mushroom hunting, so I'd say I got a little extra workout in then! More on that later!

So check in! Did you get your workout in this week.

Spring Cleaning -- Outdoor area

This week at Beautiful2God we're cleaning our outdoor area.
Mine was crazy messy.
I got a head start and cleaned a little on Saturday.
Hey, I'm not failing another week!
These pics are of course before I cleaned! I will post after pics later in the week.


We had stuff setting everywhere from winter and of course the kids have to drag tons of toys up to this area! There are lots of leaves blown up against the house (they're hard to see in these pics, but they're there!). I feel confident I'll get this area DONE!!
***
This is our last week of Spring Cleaning, but it's not to late to join in.
Go here to get your assignment and to link up!
***
No Cleaning today tho...
We're off to Mushroom hunt this afternoon! We hope to find lots. I'll post pics tomorrow on what we find.
Anyone had much luck with mushroom hunting this year???

Pineapple Jerky Review

I was excited to try Jerky.com's Pineapple Jerky!
I really had NO IDEA what to expect.
For some reason I was thinking it would look like
Well this is entirely different it is called fruit jerky!
It looks just like a slice of pineapple!
I am thrilled to report that this jerky was REALLY good. The taste is very sweet and so true to pineapple. I offered some to my Hubby, SIL, and Friend and all agreed that this had great flavor and was really good.
**
The fruit jerky is hand sliced, dehydrated, and then drizzled with honey. The only ingredients listed are pineapple and honey. This would make a great healthy snack for the kids!
**
They offer many other kinds of jerky including
On their website they even offer FREE shipping
on most items.
