Vacation

Called my daughter the night before and ask what time we were leaving in the morning…She said be ready at 4:00 and we will be there to pick you up.I said okay 6:00 by your time, right.She said I know her to well and and assured me they would be there. So I was ready by 4:00.

This is when we actually got under way…I won’t say anything about I told you so.Really,I’m not that kind of person…Nope! you wont hear me say one thing about it…

We finally arrived and we had a great time! Sat on the beach everyday and just took in everything around us,the warm sun,sand and the ocean breeze…

Here are some of my favorite Pic’s! Hope you enjoy them…

The Grand Kids having a blast feeding the Sea Gulls.

Glad to be under the umbrella!

Then it was time to say good-bye… As much fun as we had I can say I was glad to get started toward home!

There’s no place like home.There’s no place like home! Hummmmm,seems like I’ve heard that before…

Hope you all had great vacations this year!

Keep on Truck’in!

The Visit

I always enjoy the grand kids coming over for a visit. They bring such joy to my heart! Yesterday afternoon Ayla came to visit and spent the night.I’ve been promising her we would get in the kitchen and cook up something.So she looked through the cook books and came up with these,Chocolate Butterfly Cakes.She made them and decorated them her self.I supervised of course and we had a blast.She was just adorable! I got so caught up in all the joy of watching her that I totally forgot my camera.I did manage to get some pic’s of the  finished product.

We got up this morning and cooked some good grub! Ayla cooked pancakes and eggs and I cooked the sausage.She cooks great pancakes!

Recipe for the Chocolate Butterfly Cakes are at the bottom. Their easy to make and taste great too!

I scanned the page from the cook book.Hope you will make some soon with your grand kids or kids and if you don’t have your own borrow some from your brother,sister,friend or a neighbor! They will thank you for the break and your life will be filled with lots of laughs and joy!!! Kids are good for the heart you know,and they lower cholesterol!(I think.) So do ya self a favor and find you some today!
