Camping Trip - Boy's ONLY.....

First let me say that I was invited to join them .... however, I am not an outdoor camping kinda girl, so I'm home alone. No complaints .... enjoying my house .....and my time alone ......

Here is a pic of Matt near the camping site.

The Day After

I am always tired the day ofter a party that we host. Everyone left by 1 a.m. The party was a success and those who matter were there.

Valerie and David spent the night and we went to Cracker Barrel for breakfast this morning. Love that place! From there they got on the road to head home and we headed home as well. Since it is a rainy day, which is always the perfect time for a nap, which is exactly what we did. Not much better than a nap during a rainy day!

Since there were a ton of left overs, that was dinner this evening.

Tomorrow - back to work :( I need another day to put my home back together! Oh, well..... the mess will be there until I get to it!!!!

Surprise Matt!

Tonight is Matt's surprise birthday party....... lots of work for me, but I love hosting parties! I am not one to spend a lot of time with decorations or theme, but I do put the time into planning the food and drink. So the menu is:

Shrimp and cocktail sauce

Hot Chicken Dip

Meatballs in BBQ sauce

Ham and cheese sandwiches

Spinach Dip

Mexican Dip

Fruit - strawberries and grapes

Cheese squares

Vegetables - peppers, squash, cucumbers

Carvel Ice Cream Cake

There was plenty of food and drink. Later on in the evening a Poker Game ensued ..... Matt lost, but there were some big winners.

All in all, a great time was had by all!

Happy Birthday Matt!

Matt turns 42 today! WOW! Guess I can't say much since I am still older. We have a party planned for him tomorrow night at our house, but tonight we are heading out for drinks with a friend.

March 1st already! Where does the time go?

I can hardly believe that we are already 3 months into the new year. Just yesterday we were heading out to celebrate the New Year! I have been rather slack about posting a picture a day..... need to refocus. I need to refocus and get back on track with my running also...... it is very easy to come up with an excuse why NOT to run every day.....

Cruise is right around the corner, so I should have the extra incentive I need right there. Maybe trying on some swim suits will give me the kick in the pants that I need...... I'll try that tomorrow.
