Answers:
Mostly, you have some sort of agaricus (field mushroom)..
There are many edible species of Agaricus, and some that will make you throw up.. Agaricus mushrooms have pinkish gills that turn purplish and brown, then very dark brown..
Any Agaricus that has a sort of chemical phenolic odor is poisonous.. also, if you scratch the skin, it will turn yellow if poisonous..
One of your mushrooms is a puffball (maybe edible) or an Amanita (do not eat).. It is the one on the left in:
