Good Eats

Here are a couple of new restaurants we tried. One was a Mexican place and another was just a small mom and pop. Which we really enjoy finding mom and pop places to eat at! Much better food than chain restaurants.

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY!

Yesterday was my Bugs 1st birthday! We are having a party for her Saturday but Nori wanted to have a family dinner on the day of her birthday. So we went! Bug wasn't feeling well :-(  She had fun none the less eating whatever she could!

Homemade Instant Oatmeal

I make a lot of things homemade now to keep as much chemicals out of my families food as possible. So I was curious when I came across homemade instant oatmeal. I'm the only one who bothers to make and eat oatmeal in my home but I thought I'd give it a try (maybe the guys will finally eat it if it's easy like instant!). Here is what I've learned and decided to do in my home.

Rainy day...

~~**~~THIS POST WAS SUPPOST TO BE ON FRIDAY BUT THERE WERE PROBLEMS WITH THE INTERNET AND IT SAVED IT AS A DRAFT UNTIL I COULD POST IT~~**~~

It's been kinda rainy today. On and off, thunder here and there. Staying in with nothing to do. We're outta bread...so I made some. Nothing like fresh homemade bread! Later I hope to have pictures of my new floor. We've had it laid down for a while now. Oh, and my counters that Hubby built for me. Just haven't felt like doing anything. Okay, here's the wonderful bread. Sorry there isn't scratch and sniff!

A day of golf

My hubby and dad-in-law wanted to go play golf Sunday. The fun part for me and my mom-in-law is that we get the drive the golf cart buggy for our guys! And we found out we are suppose to keep an eye on the ball when they hit it, count how many times they hit it AND drive them to the ball. Didn't realize I had to do so much. I just wanted to drive the cart and enjoy the day...lol
They played nine holes and then we stopped for lunch and two pitchers of beer. No pictures there. Then back out for another nine holes. The day got so hot the last nine holes wasn't as fun as the first nine! The temperature was like "feels like 110" outside. Okay on with the pictures.

For starters I asked my hubby to take a picture of us. I could't do it as I was driving. This is how it came out!

Sharing the Love!

This post is just going to be some pictures of my Bug (aka: Hailey, granddaughter). She is getting so big and making me old...lol

Timeshare Vacation

It's been a very long time since I have posted anything. We have been busy remodeling our home and helping our daughter with hers too. I came across health problems that took months of exams and testing (everything is okay). I've been hunting for a new job (not getting enough hours at my current one). And plus I didn't think it mattered if I made these posts or not. Until my Mom-in-law told me she misses seeing them. :-) So here you go Mom.

I'm starting off with the last vacation we went on. Ormond-by-the-Sea! We were looking to buy a timeshare over on the east coast of Florida (cause we vacation there every year!). I have been searching and calling places for a year. I wanted to start after our last vacation so we had enough time to purchase it and then could use it the following year. Let me tell you....these timeshare companies are terrible. First it's hard to find, they don't advertise. Thank goodness I picked up some info from our last vacation there when we went resort hopping. I emailed them concerning the info we picked up and NEVER received an email back. I even called and the manager said he would have the sales guy call me back - nope, that didn't happen either. So I went online to the company my in-laws use and they only had a number. I called, no answer, so left a message....NO reply! I'm thinking..."How the hell do they sell timeshares and make money and how the hell does one buy a timeshare!" After all that madness I went to where I like to go for a lot of things these days - Craigslist!

Mom & Me Vacation!

My Mom and I went on a cruise in December 2014. A 5 day cruise to George Town, Cayman Island and Cozumel Island, Mexico. It was on the Royal Caribbean Brilliance of the Seas. We had such a wonderful time! But I must say....I won't ever go on another December cruise! It was too cold for me and I don't want to be cold on a tropical vacation.
