Marshmallow Shooters

You know how boys just need something to shoot (or shoot at)? Maybe it's just my boys, but I think it's in their blood (this is where my dad explains how their ancestors were in the Revolutionary War). Somehow they've got to exercise their fighting spirit.

Voila. I found the idea for these marshmallow shooters on pinterest (love it!) and they've been a hit. They're so easy to make, too! You need:

2 plastic cups

1 12" balloon

scissors

small marshmallows or pompoms

Out and About

Yes, we are still alive. Busy, but alive. Here are some of the things keeping us busy (and happy).

Isaac's 5th birthday

Jacob's Sandman Run

Cuties...

First day of school

Little man is sitting up and crawling now!

Love that smile. Johnny turned 2 in August. Where does the time go?

Isaac and Ben are in soccer this fall.

This little boy just makes me smile.

Drooler...

Couldn't miss the sites of DC on our trip. Jacob and I stole away by ourselves for a few days thanks to Grandma M.

The American History Museum looks great after its remodeling.

Couldn't miss the Air and Space Museum. (I'm only dressed like that because we biked around DC all day, which I highly recommend next time you visit!)

Lucy's spot was as pretty as ever.

My birthday was great with all these cute boys.
