Now that's some grub!!!!!!!!

Great candid pix of boys being boys..reminds me of me and my 2 older brothers.

On the last morning I was able to get a few minutes to myself and head down to the beach to watch the sunrise. It was amazing.

Spectacular pic!

Hope that was helpful..it was longer than I intended. Sorry!

Here's a picture of my "hangy thing"!

Please don't apologize! That was most informative! And the picture was an added bonus. Thank you so much.

Why do you say "closet" in quotes? Is it not really a closet?

It was good - brats (cut up so they'd cook faster), potatoes, and broccoli. It was all suppose to be cooked in foil packets on the fire, but we were having issues with the fire.

It's not what I would call a closet...no doors, just a wooden rod to hang things on. It's big though. If you go to the website you posted a few days ago about POR you can see room pics and you can see what I mean!

I've probably seen it - I just wasn't thinking about storage, etc. when I looked at them. Going to do that now.

Hi Carissa! I like you camping pictures - I used to camp a lot as a kid and then with DH. Unfortunately, the last time I went camping was when I was 7 months pregnant with Alex, so it's been 8 1/2 years! We were going to try it out last summer, but it got too late in the season (we have to end around Labor Day up here) and we didn't make it. We are going to try one night at a state park on a lake that isn't too far from our house - just in case. Funny thing is I do the books for a campground during the summer - but I think that's too close for comfort to camp there. I've never camped on a beach - that looks like fun!

LOVE all of your Target loot! Those little bottles of laundry detergent are great. I want to get one of those hampers too. And that over the door shoe holder thingy that mommytothreeboys posted! We're going to be cramped at CBR (compared to what we are used to with the cond) so I need to make the space count.

Good luck with the whole moving situation... I really hope you guys get some resolution soon.

I'm expecting a commision check from Target!

So - this year I want to give it a go. I've heard it's quite addicting!

You have been warned!

Here is one other set that I own (sorry it's not a great picture - stupid flash! - but the bottom one is Goofy):

A bad picture of "Goofy" is just unacceptable

How many pins do you have Keith? Thousands?

Carissa, There are some things we do not divulge on threads that my wife may be reading.

 

[liznboys]

I saw those shirts and the first thing I thought was, "Those would look so nice and cheery in sunny Disney World!" How could I say no to that reasoning?

They really are great, I may have to force myself into a Walmart to see if I can find some for myself!

I forgot to say before that whatever you were cooking in there looked so good!

 

[dddisrunner]

I loved all the camping pictures! Your boys are so cute! Great dollar section stuff!

Yeah - we're use to having more space - first at Shades of Green (which are deluxe rooms) and then at the townhouse last time. But, we'll just stay out of our rooms as much as possible!

Wives know everything Keith.

Thanks! I had recently read that about the gift card and that's awesome. Thanks for the link of someone actually using the ticket. Sounds like it's running just like it's suppose to so that's good.

I just found this so I have lots of catching up to do but I am loving it so far!

P.S. DF and I are also red sox and O.A.R. lovers

Thanks for coming by! Sox fans are MOST welcome here. What do you think of O.A.R.'s newest CD? I was disappointed with it (although I haven't actually sat and listened to the entire thing), but we all love "Shattered."

Can't wait to read about your proposal! I have to go see if you've updated today.

 

[LaurenMic]

Haha you are quick you already found my update!! I love having such loyal readers

I am kinda neutral about the new CD...we love Shattered, DF loves the whole CD, but I like their older stuff better personally.

Hi Carissa!! I am late to the party, but congrats on staying on property!! POR is beautiful, Bill and I loved it. It was great getting to take the boat to DTD. We loved LeCellier, I have never seen those travel detergents, I wish I hadn't read about the stuff at Target . Now I want to go.

I have had that happen to me on Ebay with pins before, that aggravated me. Thanks for having links to installments it was easy to catch up.

I was very anxious to read about your proposal!

Hey MrsK! Glad to see you here. I have heard only good things about POR and it's really making me excited to go. Sorry about the temptation - you can blame winkers.

I failed to comment on your sunrise picture. It is beautiful!
