he did WHAT?

My plan today was to work on mudding the living room during naptime as well as making beef stroganoff. Neither happened. I remembered my HUGE bowl of tomatoes sitting on my patio table and figured I should do something with them. Originally I thought I would just peel them and can them and then I decided while I was at it I may as well just make some spaghetti sauce. While chopping and pureeing the tomatoes I decided it would make a ton of spaghetti sauce so why not make chili too. Then, to add to my adventure I thought "wouldn't it be neat if I took pictures as I'm doing it like those really nice recipe blogs???" All I can do is laugh at myself now. I did it all....and we ordered pizza for dinner...and my living room is the same as it was this morning.

Anyways, since I took the pictures I may as well post a few!!
My tomatoes.....
and lucky me, when Daniel got home from work he went out to our garden and brought me some more.

In the boiling water to loosen the peel.

Cooling off so I can peel them without burning my hands.

Not really sure why I thought you needed to see a picture of the tomatoes with the peels slightly burst but I did!

In my super fantastic food processor! In hindsight, I wish I would've' used my blender; it seems to make things smoother.

Finished products!

Now they're all cooling off in cute little containers in my freezer waiting for their turn at dinner.

We had another soccer game tonight too.

He kicked the ball!

Celebrating because he scored a freakin' goal!!!!!
(nevermind the fact that he scored it in the other team's goal!)

He's headed in the right direction..

He actually kicked it twice in a row!

I'm proud of my big boy!

This is how Zach enjoyed the game.....2 mini tootsie pops at the same time.
yum. 
I sort of think Zach was trying to get Jacob back for making him sit through two nights in a row of soccer...I was washing dishes in the kitchen while I hear Daniel say loudly "no sir! You are going to time out for that." Jacob was the last one I heard yelling before that so I assumed it was Jacob going to time out. . . about 4 seconds later I see Daniel hauling Zach out of the bathroom in his towel right to the time out chair. What do I hear him say? "Zach, you're in time out for 3 minutes for peeing on your brother."

yep, never a dull moment.
