  • Our Super Trip – Day #4

    Day #1 Day #2 Day #3 When Foodie Pen Pals Meet Monday started with a walk on the beach with Hubby.  I looked like a tacky tourist, as the Wee One would say.  I had on my bathing suit, a cover-up, a thin fabric cardigan, and my photography backpack, and I was carrying around my…

  • Day #1. Day #2 When Foodie Pen Pals Meet Just so you know, we stayed at the beach with my in-laws (mother, father, sister, and brother) and my niece and nephew. On Sunday, I was the first person up so I could see the sunrise.  It was not as spectacular as it was by the…

  • Our Super Trip – Day #2

    Day #1 When Foodie Pen Pals Meet On Saturday morning, we got up early and went down for breakfast. We ended up being early, which made our two sleepy children unhappy. Luckily there was a lobby with couches, so they laid down until breakfast was ready. Before we left Charlottesville, we stopped at Bodo’s Bagels.…

  • Our Super Trip – Day #1

    We just returned from an awesome trip because it lasted for 11 days – 6 of which were at the beach. On the other 5 days, we visited and traveled from one place to another. We listened to the boys say, “I’m bored!” or “What state are we in?” or “Ohio.  Indiana. Missouri,” or “I…

  • During the winter, we decided to go to our favorite beach – Folly Beach, South Carolina. Ideas about where we should go on the way there and the way home were thrown around. We knew we did not want to go to Gatlinburg because we had done that twice before, so it was time for…

  • We eat dinner together most days. It is important to both Hubby and me. We were both brought up eating dinner as a family. So we want to continue this tradition with the boys. Our conversations can be fun because you never know what the boys might say. Here are some of our conversations: Key:…

  • A couple of weeks ago, the Wee One wanted to go on a date with his mom so we decided to go to King’s Island for his birthday.  The trip would take the place of a birthday party.  His only concern was “Am I still going to get presents?”  The concerns of an 8 year…

  • This is our family’s favorite ice cream that my in-laws make. They only make it for special occasions. At the end of the school year, my mother-in-law contacts my sons’ teachers and asks if they mind her bringing some ice creams to share with their classmates. It is a way for them to celebrate their birthdays…

  • The Wee One and I like to crack open a jar of salsa and then enjoy it with tortilla chips. This usually our evening snack. So when I saw this recipe the other day I decided to make it. After I made it, the Wee One and I snacked on it. Did it meet his…

  • Yesterday the Imaginative One and I went to the zoo to check out the new dinosaur island exhibit.  On the way there, I saw a sign about strawberry picking, so I asked him if he wanted to stop and pick some fresh strawberries.  Since he loves strawberries, he told me yes!!!!  So I followed the…
