My friend Jaime from Three Paper Peonies (a digital scrapbooking design company) posted this on her blog and I had to share it here. She broke the glass…

Yep, I am so going there. Fart, toot, cut the cheese, pass gas, breaking wind, flatulence, whatever you want to call it I have yet to meet a boy who doesn’t think it’s funny. Living in a house with 3 boys you quickly learn to find the humor in bodily functions. If you want to be the life of a boy party teach them this fun “trick”. My brother (ok maybe me too) did this when we were younger and the boys learned at a friends’ house from a neighbor.
I hope you all are having an awesome weekend celebrating our independence and freedom. Yesterday we spent the afternoon swimming with my mom and on the way home decided to head up to the lake to check out the fireworks since they were doing them a day early. We were just going to park on the side of the road but there wasn’t too many places to go so we thought we’d check it out inside next to the lake (where the actual event was taking place). I am SO glad we did! It was busy on the lawn but we went out onto the little desert trail and found ourselves the perfect little rock on the edge to sit.
A new edition of Etsy Finds Friday. This week is imagination. My boys love using their imagination and fun props to help them are always a bonus. We…
Today we have a quick interview with the always fun Dawn from Not Just a Mommy. Are you familiar with her blog? She posts tons of fun things from entertaining, event planning, crafts and lifestyle and she’s a fun person to follow on Twitter! I’ve asked her to do a quick, fun interview with us and I’m sharing her super amazing party for her now 10 year old.

When my boys caught a glimpse of this party I was told that I HAD to share in on All for the Boys. My 8 year old has been very into Diary of a Wimpy Kid and my very newly 7 year old is just getting into it himself so they were both enthralled with all the photos from this party.
Pen and Pencil is the blog for Hampton Paper Designs and is where this party was first introduced a couple of weeks ago.
Have you heard of Geocaching? It’s sort of like a treasure hunt. Someone hides a container of little “treasures” and logs it on the Geocaching site. You create a free account and choose a site close to you (or whever you want) and you’ll get the GPS coordinates for that site. The Geocaching app for iPhone (I think they have Android too) was pretty easy in folling the coordinates but you can use your smart phone with GPS, or GPS unit if you have one.
I just realized that Independence Day is one week from today! The boys love when I make a deal out of each holiday so I try to do something whether a craft, decoration, or special snack. I was searching for some ideas the other day and thought I’d share some that I found that the boys thought looked interesting.

I should probably do an Etsy Finds Friday again soon, but the boys and I love Fort Friday. It always makes me want to stop what I’m doing and build a fort. Everything is more fun in a fort! I think we’ll build one this week to share at our next Fort Friday.
