I found some mysterious mushrooms

This is from South Florida, where i found these in my backyard... In fact, the sod in my backyard is taken from some kinda mushroom farm, so i get a lot of shrooms growin in the fall each year.
However, until i crossed this site, i didnt really care about mushrooms growin in my yard... but now, i look for them quite frequently.
Since i'm fairly new to lookin for and identifying mushrooms... I am gonna post some pics of this triple mushroom thingy i found in my backyard. Can anyone identify this mushroom?

Take a look at this page on puffballs: http://botit.botany.wisc.edu/toms_fungi/aug98.html
I wouldn't do anything but admire them, it could be a poison puffball.

Scleroderma are quite easy to distinguish from puffballs.
The edible puffballs are not only pure white inside, but are soft like a marshmallow while a Scleroderma is quite hard inside.

Yeah, it tells me that they aren't edible anymore, you've got to catch them before they start producing spores.
I don't bother with puffballs usually but the giant variety are delicious!
