BEST EVER Pumpkin Bars

The weekend is almost over...
*sigh*
I LOVE weekends!

I'm actually sitting by my computer right now while my beautician sister is hi-lighting my hair.
She's awesome.
REALLY awesome!

(by the way...she just started a blog... go tell her HI for me and follow her.. she's awesome :)

Friday night was a home football game.
It ended in a loss...which was expected.
But the good news is we didn't lose by as much as we had thought.
:)
Bright side to everything!

Saturday morning I tricked all three kids into taking morning naps.
All four of us slept from 9:30 until 12:45.
THAT is unheard of... I still can't believe my luck:)

Saturday afternoon we went to the park.
Saturday evening I made pumpkin bars and we went for a long walk by the lake as a family.

Sunday morning was spent at church.
Sunday afternoon naps.
And now here it is Sunday evening :)

Back to the pumpkin bars...
I kid you not this is the BEST pumpkin bar recipe you will find!
It makes a 9x13 pan.
I made these last night and all that is left is one single row.
That's how good they are :)
