Camping this weekend

We just back from our last weekend of camping for this season. We had a great time and the kids came home fairly clean. We stayed at a Yogi Jellystone Park. They had a Halloween weekend where the kids got to Trick or Treat through the campground and wear their costumes. It was fun to trial run our outfits for Halloween.

Whenever were camping we love to look at other trailers. There was one on the site next to ours that was so huge that they had one of thos mini semi’s hauling it. There was one point that when their door was open to their 5th wheel I could see in their trailer. It was beautiful!!! They even had one of those pop up tv things that comes out of your counter top. Man it sure is nice to dream but I can’t say our trailer will ever be that big or fancy. LOL

Friday 5: Orange

What’s your favorite orange-colored food?  Butternut squash…thank you Maddie for helping me with that one!!!

What’s the best way to drink orange juice?  In a cup… is there any other way?

Which candy’s orange-colored pieces taste best?  Starburst by far win that award!!!

What are your feelings about orange soda?  As long as it’s Diet orange pop (LOL) I love it.

When did you last wear an orange item of clothing? I have an orange shirt I wear all of the time.

Once again

I am so over this weight that is just hanging on right now. Granted it doesn’t help that I can no longer go for a long walk and help burn it off. It’s so hard not to give in and go see my PCP and get a prescription for some diet pills and just get it gone. But I am so not into using a pill to take off something I did to myself. I know if I work really hard then I can get it off it’s just going to be a long road. A plus is a new Aquatic center that we have here in Spring Lake now. It will be fun to get the kids out to a cool pool durning the winter blues but also be able to put them in childcare and use an eliptical machine. I can only do low impact exercise now which includes that and swimming. Guess I need to get a bathing suit beucase this weight will come off!!!

Oh yeah

So along with watching the home improvement shows they also show lots of how to sell your house and ways to make it more pleasing to potential buyers. One thing we have talked about numerous times is putting on new door hardware to make it more of a brushed nickle color. I am not a fan at all of our gold color when we have so many other things through out the house that are already the brushed nickle. I hope that Joel still likes that idea and we can start slowly changing out the door hardware.

If you haven’t caught on I’d like to sell our house in the next few years. We are just a bit crowded here and it would be nice to have a real office for Joel.

Home improvement shows…

Almost every Labor day you can find home improvement shows on. I love to watch them and dream about either things we could do to our house or about find a house with those features once we finally move out of this house some day. Of course if you looked at my list versus Joel’s list you would find them to be very different. His list would surely include a room for home theater furniture and huge projection T.V. on the wall. Mine however would be a huge kitchen with dark wood that lover looked a large great room/ Family room.

I can say that I truly look forward to looking for our next house when the time is right. There is one in our neighborhood that we would love to have but of course it’s for sale right now. I hope it’s not wrong of me to hope it’s still for sale when we are ready to sell. We both would love to have it and it’s be recently redone.
