OCEAN SHORES!

Tim and I had the opportunity to get a way for the weekend. A much needed time away from the kids and everyday life. This is a view from our hotel room. We were able to watch the sunset the first night right from our room. Most of the pictures that i have were of the sunset. It was so beautiful and so peaceful. The sun dropped right into the ocean.






This is Tim watching the sunset while i was camera happy.

Can you find the Seagull?


If anyone knows me i am deathly afraid of motorcycles. When i was a kid my cousin took me on a ride on the farm and we crashed. I was about 8 years old or something. So i have not been on one since. Well while i was shaking to death by just the thought of it i decided to face my fear and go on a moped. I was so scared that i was shaking. Well Tim takes off and i was supposed to follow him and for some reason i put on the gas the same time i was putting on the brake. I about crashed again. So i walked the bike back to the place and the big huge guy says that i can do it and taught me how to put on the break the right way and the gas. He also told me that if I could ride a bike i could do this. So i took a deep breath and headed to the road. When i caught up with Tim he was very proud of me and gave me more courage to continue to go. In these pictures i was so scared but i did it and now i am a pro. Well at least on the beach. The next day we went on them again and i was such a pro. We had a good time and made it back in time to celebrate my favorite holiday Columbus Day!

Favorite Holiday!!

Columbus day is on Monday and it is my favorite Holiday of the year. Why you ask, because the kids have school and i get the day off. Columbus day is one of the holidays that i get paid to take off. Even better so to celebrate i am staring on Friday. I decided to take an extra day off and my husband and i are going away until Sunday. The kids are going to my brothers and sisters house and we are out of here. It is going to be a windy, rainy weekend and what a better way to spend it than by the ocean. There is nothing better than the waves beating on the sand and being really cold and wet. I am so looking forward to sleeping in!!!
Have a great weekend, I know i will. :)

MY DOG REBA!!!



This is my dog Reba, Well she was 14 years old and i had to have her put down yesterday. Being raised in the country you would think that it would be easier that it is. She had a great life and was a great dog to own. We got her when she was 4 years old, she is a border collie. I loved this dog so much. I knew that when i took her camping this summer it was probably the last time she would be able to go but was dreading for the day to come to say goodbye.

BreAnna with with me and Tim drove us to have it done. We even stopped by a fast food place to get her some french fries, those were her favorite. I was ok until i had to sign the papers to let her go. Last night as i was getting the kids to bed and going about my normal routine of making sure the dog had food and water and realizing that she wasn't around. Like anything that passes on she is in a great place and is not hurting anymore. She was loved and so glad that she shared her life with us. We miss you so much!!!
