Happy Halloweenie with the Kiddies!

Well, it was a ghoulishly festive night for all!  We took our two little ones to the church Fall Festival, and my daughter did the same with our other little one, only in FL.  So here, my ghostly buddies, are the evidence pics:

Bouncing in the blow-up houses, makes me itch, just to think about it!

Getting the “loot” from all the cars….my favorite part!

 

That was in North Carolina, now we head south to Florida and see what’s going on down there:

Digging for buried treasures….no doubt a trap to get young princesses!

Getting her heart painted on, but doesn’t wait for it to dry!

Begging for treats…how can you refuse that face?

75068_10150295609290254_804560253_15732418_1874359_n

What a poser that girl…just like her mommy!

How do you like me now?

77011_10150295611030254_804560253_15732448_2633151_n

Take me home mommy, I have had enough partying!

 

So goes the night of tricks and treats.  Now all we have are the dentist bills to come…..hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloweenie.  Looks like these munchkins did!

The Birthday Boy and More!


We had a birthday party for my grandson last Saturday.  He turned 2!  Yay Sammy!  We spent the day before together, went to the park, McDonald’s for a happy meal, and then had a sleepover at Nonna’s.

Now the important part, PRESENTS!!

DSCF3323

What a fun party, it was all over quickly! lol

 

Now…it wouldn’t be fair not to share my other baby with everyone.  So…this is Molly, and she is going to have a new brother or sister in June!

Well, I think that I have bragged enough for today.  Hope you enjoy these pics.  I love my babies, they light up my life!

Oh Sister, You Forgot Somethings

As me an my honey were on our date, we revisited some of the places we took my sister. 

 

DSCF3212

The pier on the beach, (right behind the bench there is where you fell over and couldn’t get up!)

 

We walked along this pier and people watched for a good hour.  It was something we should of done while you were here.  The pier goes out forever!  It is like you are in the middle of the ocean.  You would love it. 

 

DSCF3230 

Taken from the top deck of the pier, off to the left on the sand is where we picnicked.

 

DSCF3223

The view from the very top.  It was a balmy, breezy 70!  Your kind of day!

 

Then I took some pictures of the color of the water, it isn’t as pretty as it was in person.  It was turquoise that day.  And this didn’t do it justice. 

 

DSCF3233

 

DSCF3219

Places to sit all along the way….nice for gimpy peeps like you and me! 

 

Then we went to the base.  The have a beach access there.  It is actually the river.  But, it is just like a beach.  Jim and his dad used to go here and set out nets and get shrimp and fish.  Then they would go rake for clams.  Wait till you see it in person.  Here is a sneak peak.  It is a bit of a climb to get in there, but I think you can do it. 

 

DSCF3236

Jim used to party here when he was a teenager! 

 

DSCF3234 

Yup…that’s my party animal right there.  The beach goes way back, we walked way past that big tree.

 

DSCF3239

Did you forget a few shells here?  LMAO!  I was having a fit, thinking you wouldn’t have pockets big enough!

 

DSCF3237

They are mostly clam shells, all shapes, colors, sizes….you could fill a few five gallon buckets EASY!!

DSCF3235

The water is calmer here, but still laps up on the beach like where we were before.

 

DSCF3242

This is where we went down, the building in the background is our new “All-Ranks Club” for officers and enlisted men.  We will join when it opens this month.  It’s got quite a view.

Anyway, this is what I wanted you to see.  Just a few of things that you should of seen while you were here.  And I am sure there will be more.  We also went to a really good pawn store.  It had some good bargains.  The old man and rick weren’t there.  So it wasn’t the same.  LOL 

 

Well, I am off to see if I can get a hair cut.  Nothing else exciting going on here.  All my excitement left me last week!  HA HA  OH wait, the jehovah’s witness’ came by, I pretended I wasn’t home.  That was pretty exciting.  So…there you have it.  My sappy Saturday….

The Time is Near, My Dear

It is that time, yup, just has flown by like a flock of geese going south for the winter.  My sissy is leaving me!  Nooooo!  Don’t let her leave!  She hasn’t even been here two whole weeks yet, I say another couple of months ought to do it. lol  She left me today at noon.  It was soooo sad.  But we had some good times.  I will post the evidence here as soon as I load it up! 

 

We had a final hurrah last night.  It was my MIL’s birthday and we had everyone over to celebrate, and also Chris’ last night here.  I’m bored now.  Don’t know what to do with myself.  We went 90 miles an hour while she was here.  Never sat around.  Now I am just sulking and bored and depressed.  Now I need a trip!

Drinking a beer on the boardwalk at sunset……yeah, baby!

 

IMG_2303

One of our many boats from our fleet…..ha ha, we wished it was true, just dreaming again!

 

IMG_2313

…down on the boardwalk, we’ll be having some fun….

 

IMG_2325

What we waited an hour to see and was so well worth it!  don’t you think?  GORGEOUS!!!

 

IMG_2349

At Ft. Macon

 

IMG_2320 

At Beaufort at the boardwalk we saw this boat, then the very next day…

 

IMG_2365

We saw it out at Emerald Isle just passing us by, I think they were following us!

 

IMG_2366

More sea vessels out cruising for the day, it was so nice out, in the 90’s!

Enjoying fresh seafood, hope you had your fill, it will be a while till you get more!

Even have a street named after my sister!  Look at that…who would of thunk it??

 

Jo's Pictures 141

Loving on MY grand babies, I had to share, she couldn’t be near hers, and well, it is nice to share.

 

Jo's Pictures 145

They just loved their “granny” Chris.  It was the first time she met them.

 

Jo's Pictures 150

Now it is time to say good-bye.  The morning she left.  It was a sad day.

 

Jo's Pictures 149

Well, sadder for some than others apparently.  She was wearing a lamp shade!  What a goof-ball!

 

 

Well, there you have it folks, all the gory details and grotesque evidence of all we did.  LOL  It was so short, it almost didn’t happen!  I want a redo!  She is still on her way home.  I have been trying to write this for several days now.  My pictures just were not cooperating. 

 

She should be home about 2-3 am Tuesday.  If I know her, she will want to take time to check all her mail, blog, shower, then sleep the whole next day.  Bless her driving little heart.  She hasn’t slept at all the whole trip.  She tried several times but didn’t get much sleep.  She will make up for it at home. 

 

Hope you enjoy the gallery.  It took me long enough.  Geez.  I need to take a class on how to work computers.  I’m so not a geek.  Well, got to go now, you all have a good week.
