One last blast

Saturday, October 10th, 2009

It’s been a long hot summer and my family is happy that it’s almost over. We are all ready for the cooler weather to take over. But after thinking about it, we all decided that we wanted to take one last vacation before that happens. You know; a one last blast kind of thing. Since we had all enjoyed our last trip to a Myrtle Beach Resort, we thought we would return there for our trip.

As I was searching online to find out what options we had, I found that there were many Myrtle Beach Resorts to choose from. One of the newest ones was called the Avista Resort that looked like the best. The building was really interesting and the grounds around it were nice as well. I also knew that there would be plenty of things for everyone to do when we got there.

We have visited the area before and have always counted on the fact that we would receive great service during our trip. No matter which of the Myrtle Beach Hotels you visit, you can’t go wrong. Everyone is excited about the trip and I am sure that we will have plenty of pictures to share when we get back. The only thing left to do after that will be to start planning our winter trip!

One last time

Sunday, September 13th, 2009

Since the winter is getting ready to set in, I thought that I would take my family out for one last camping trip before it gets too cold. I asked the kids about it and they were all for going to a pa rv camping facility. We have enjoyed these trips before and they have become one of our favorites. There are many things to do and everyone always seems to have a great time.

The best part about going to one of the pennsylvania RV Parks is that you always seem to meet someone new and interesting. You never know who you will be camping with and it’s always a neat surprise. We have met many families just like ours who enjoy the outdoors and take advantage of the hiking and other camping activities.

The best part about gettysburg camping is the history that surrounds you. No matter where you go, there is always something new and interesting to learn from. We like the feeling of getting away from the daily grind of life and spending time together as a family. I think it sure would be neat if we met you while enjoying ourselves there. I hope to see you soon!

How things have changed

I remember growing talking with my girlfriend on the phone. The bad part was that the only phone we had was in the kitchen which didn’t have much privacy. I was also forced to walk around and talk as the cord would only reach so far. I wish my kids could have a few days of living like that to show them how lucky they are!

My kids live and die by their phones and are always bugging me to get them the latest Cell phones. It seems that phones are sort of like clothes and are always going out of fashion. My daughter wouldn’t be caught dead with anything other than a blackberry phone. All her friends have them and she has to have one too.

Since I was destined to buy her a phone, I decided that I would go all out and get her the Cell phone accessories she wanted. She wanted a case and it had to be purple or else she might die. I also got her a charger so she could charge her phone in the car. I’ll be glad when she can afford her own phone and then she can have whatever she wants!

Sleeping on it

Slowly but surely, we have been fixing up the house. We are done with most of the major projects such as painting and the kitchen remodeling. Now that the house is looking good, we decided to add some new furniture into the picture. One area that really needs attention is the kids’ bedroom. That’s why we decided to look into getting some childrens beds in order to improve their rooms.

My son has been bugging us to buy him one of those racer beds that look like a car. Every time we go to the store and see one, he goes bananas! I thought that this may be the right time to finally get him one. I am sure he will love it and it will look great in his room. The problem is that he’s not the only one who wants something.

Our daughter has been angling for a new bed as well. She wants to have a pink bed that will match the color scheme of her room. They have some really nice ones these days and a good place to find one is on a site called time4sleep.com.uk. They have all the beds you could wish for and I am sure you would find one you liked. I hope you can spare a few minutes and check out the site, you won’t regret it!
