Well the beach turned out to be a total failure. I spent a full week planning it out, 2 full straight days moving non-stop packing, buying, etc. Just to get out there for it to fail. I know everything can't be perfect & have everything go as you plan it, but this went to far.
We actually had enough people get out there. Amber R. & Bree, Amber M., Mercedes & Nathan. Spencer got a bunch of people from his school about 7 people. Plus Timothy & Amanda.
We got out there we got stuck in the sand. So we had to get pulled out. Then we finally got to the spot & was dark. Put up the tent, which took forever. When it was time for me to sit down for 5 minutes, I got sick & threw up. So I crashed before everyone else, didn't get to enjoy everyone's time & company.
Next morning I was among the first to wake up & suddenly I see an ominous cloud out over the water. I wake Spencer up & not 30 minutes later, rain & what felt like hail started falling. By the time we got everything packed up everyone was soaked. After packing up we left & headed to the ferry. As soon as we got to the ferry, the rain stopped.

So I had a blast this past weekend. Spent tons of money on a failure of  "1" night. According to everyone else they had a blast. So something got accompished. This was my first time camping & it was a horrible experience. I was so excited to do it, and I couldn't enjoy it. I think I over worked & stressed out too much that I made myself sick. (But last night I felt sick to my stomach again, so I'm thinking there's a bug going around.)




Well for now, I'm cooking a Shoulder Roast. BBQ/Root Beer Dry Rub Roast. So look on my food website to see the recipe & photos.

Hello!

Gavin is almost 3 months old now. And doing good. He's 13 lbs as of Monday. 

Hayden has spending time with Grandma Peggy a lot since she's moved back to Texas. He even has his own room at the house. For while anyways, since he's the Oldest Grandchild. 

He will also be starting his first year of school at the end of the month. He's excited to start Kindergarten. 

I've been doing lots of Crockpot cooking & even doing one tonight. Brown Sugar Balsamic Chicken. 

Been super busy today since 730 & tired already.  I've been packing & cleaning everything to be ready for a camping trip on the beach tomorrow night, and possibly Saturday night. About half way done. I still need to go food shopping. 

A bunch of people will be joining us as well. This will be my first camping trip ever. (Other than backyard camping lol) I'm super excited. 

It will be Spencer , Me & Hayden. Gavin will be staying with Grandma & Grandpa since he's still too young.
