Saucer Summer Tour Part 11

Sunday, June 17^th, 2012

Today we started the day with breakfast. Then we went to 10am mass at our old church, St. Dominic’s. After church we made a big spaghetti lunch and headed back to the beach at St. Andrew’s state park. The parking lot was FULL so after driving around a bit, I dropped Chalane, the kids, and the gear off and found the last spot as far away as you could get from the boardwalk!! We found a spot to plant the umbrella and enjoy another weather PERFECT day!!

After a few hours we got cleaned up and drove to Captain Anderson’s pier to catch the Dolphin Cruise. Joey was asleep on my lap in less than 5 min. He missed out on feeding the sea gulls Cheetos. They are so trained for the boat they flock right to you and practically grab the Cheetos out of your hand!! The kids were very excited to see the sea gulls catch the Cheetos in mid air. When we got to the deeper water I woke Joey up to move to the front of the boat and watch for the dolphins. We were very lucky tonight and saw 3 different pods. They were all quite large and we saw 50+ different dolphins playing in the water!! After the cruise we headed back for showers, dinner and bed time. Tomorrow will be the first big driving day without Daddy. We are headed to Nashville, TN to spend the night in route to the big stop with friends.

Pictures can bee seen here.

Plumbing Plunders

Well this may get a little long winded as our plumbing problems have been on going for a long time. For those of you who don't know we built a brand new house and moved in April 14th, 2006 so it's less than a year old. This past summer I noticed that our toilets and sinks gurgled often and in August I called the builder to send the plumbers out under our 1yr warranty to check it out. They came and basically made me feel like I was hallucinating. They said they cleaned the lines and there wasn't anything suspicious so if they gurgled again to give them a call and they would come back out, but if they were REALLY gurgling the problem would mean tearing into our foundation and we wouldn't want that now would we. No, I didn't want that so when they started gurgling again in the fall I just ignored it as the plumber said it wasn't really an issue. Well in February 2007 it could no longer be ignored as sewage started coming up the drains in our shower and bathtub...

Santa Claus is Comin' to Town

Well, I'm not sure what made me think I could sew. . . I thought sewing a santa suit wouldn't be too difficult if it was part of a "kit". The base playgroup was doing some Christmas pictures of the kids and I thought I could get the suit done in time to have Daniel take an early lunch and show up as Santa. Well this "kit" had very confusing directions. They may as well have been written in Japanese!!! After spending an entire 3hr naptime studying and attempting to cut out the pieces I was beyond frustrated and ready to cry. I ended up using my resources and sending out a very desperate email to EVERY email address I had for people that lived near me (there are some playgroup lists with emails of people I don't even know). Within 30 minutes a friend, Erin, from my MOPS group responded so I called her and she was able to help me figure out how to cut the pieces out correctly!!! Ok so the pieces are cut out, know what do I do!?! Well. yesterday I r...
