Time to buy school supplies

I can’t believe it’s that time already. I was in Walmart and the school supplies are already out and the school lists as well. Another two weeks and the kids will be back in school and the next round will have started. It seems like a never ending cycle on one hand, and on the other it seems like the kids just grow so fast I can barely keep up. O.o

Love these hash browns

I decided to try these hash browns one day just on a fluke. I figured it would be enough for maybe one or two people. Wrong. It is enough for all of us to have with breakfast. That is if some of the people you are feeding are kids and don’t eat a whole lot. In any case, we all loved them and they just go into the cupboard and don’t have to be refrigerated. I really love that!

Alaskan vacation

I have been wanting to go to Alaska forever. I have family there and have never gotten to visit them. My cousin has been trying to get me and the rest of my family to come up for a long time. We have considered it off and on, whether to just go up for a visit or to take a cruise while we are up there. We even looked into alaska hotels to see if we could find one that is near enough to visit family, but also to just enjoy the trip.

This lodge style hotel is just what I am looking for if we decide to go up. I want the full experience of the Alaskan “frontier” style vacation. This kind of hotel embodies that style to it’s fullest.

This is the kind of views you can expect to see in Alaska. I cannot imagine a more beautiful place on earth to visit, I asked my cousin how she could deal with the extreme cold during the winter and she said” The perfect summers make the harsh winters totally worth it”. Can you imagine a “perfect summer”? The perfect temperature all summer long without being too hot at any point is definitely worth experiencing. As much as I love to ski, I don’t think I would ever brave a winter vacation there though. That would be a bit too cold for me.

Tattoo

I think I am going to get a tattoo. I know that a lot of people don’t really like them, but some are really pretty and I have been thinking about it forever it seems. I finally found something I like, although I want my own version of it. This is what it is but mine will have birds instead of flowers in it.

Better late then never

I just wanted to wish everyone a late Happy 4th of July. I have been so busy this weekend that I didn’t have time to get on here until now. We had a blast and BBQ’d everyday, either here or at a friends or relatives. We didn’t stay home at all. The fireworks were awesome as usual and we of course, had some of our own to light off as well. I hope that everyone had as great a weekend as we did.

For my home based business

Now I can print business cards at printingamerica.com for my home based business. I am really glad I found them. I have been looking for a while for a place to get my cards done, but had been unsuccessful until now. I was able to find a company that fits my budget and not charge me an arm and a leg. Happy now !
