I found the secret (or maybe y'all already knew this) to cooking dried beans in the crockpot: cook them on high. After we tried eating them Friday night, I put them back in the crockpot for a few more hours on low. They were still hard when I turned them off. The next morning, I put them back in the crockpot on high and cooked them until dinner. Boy, where they good!! That did the trick. You would think that they would have been all mushy after cooking all day Friday and all day Saturday but they weren't. I made a note on my recipe to follow the directions and cook them on high, even if they cook all day. Silly me!!
I have some pictures I took of the kids this weekend. After I get them downloaded from my camera, I will post them here on the blog. Make sure you check back later today to see them. The kids are cute, if I say so myself.

Soaking them overnight in cold water before cooking them can help too.
