Because it’s almost summer

This week here in good old SW Ohio, it went from ridiculously rainy to hellaciously humid in just a couple days time.  SO, it feels like summer!  But at least the kids and I can get outside. I had fun yesterday finally taking a few actual pictures of Jonah with a real camera. (Since you know, I don’t know enough about my fancy camera to make it take good pics inside, even though I have had it for three years!)  Wanna see?

Isn’t he the beeeooootifulest?

And he’s as sweet as he looks!

The crazy humidity of the day inspired me to break out a cool treat for dessert after dinner: new Nestle’s Drumstick Sprinkled!  They are flippin’ AWESOME. And not good for my diet.  But so, so YUMMY.  There’s a chocolate nugget at the bottom of the cone so you gotta eat it all.  Here’s my big kids enjoying theirs:

The nice folks at Nestle sent Emily and me a box of Drumsticks Sprinkled and they have given us FIVE gift certificates to give away!! Simply leave a comment on this post telling us your favorite flavor of ice cream and you’ll be entered to win. Or, you can leave me a comment telling me how cute my kids are. Either way. 🙂
Five winners will be drawn at random on Wednesday, May 18th. Contest closes that day at 5 PM EST.

Good luck!
