Happy Anniversary!



Today was our 19th anniversary!! We spent the day together and went to the movies and went to Olive Garden for dinner.

Olive Garden has the best coffee and our favorite dessert...their lemon cake. MMMM good stuff!!

The movie we saw was Obsessed. Had Beyonce in it, she is actually pretty good. Sometimes you wonder about a singer moving to acting. But she was good. Ali Larter played the obsessed....she is sooo pretty!!!

New Little Babies

We have had a bird cage for 10-12 years now always hoping a bird would move in and nest. This finally happened this year.




There were four little eggs....




And today we saw we have babies.....




Castile Soap


Well I guess I have been neglecting this blog….mainly because I highly doubt I have much if any visitors, but hey if nothing else it will be fun for me to read back on.

Well my newest obsession is soap making, here is a picture of my castile soap I just made this past weekend.


Castile soap is 100% olive oil. Some say it can be any vegetable oil, but in my reading the good ol’ fashioned kind is just 100% olive oil and nothing else.

A lot of people don’t care for it. Some will say the lather is creamy and smooth…others will say it is slimy. I will let you know in 6 months after mine has gone through a good and proper cure time.

Weekend of Caching

We geocached this weekend…like what else is new right?? We now have over 900 finds….just over 100 of those are FTFs. FTF is “First to Find”. That is something to brag about! You gotta be first....well we think so.
To do so…yes we have gone out late at night in our jammers. I blame this behavior on empty nest syndrome. When you don’t have small children to tend to…well you do silly things.

So this weekend we tried to go up higher in elevation in hopes it was cooler. It was a little bit cooler. Got a nice sunburned since we had the top of the jeep off….yeah note to self…SUNSCREEN!!
