City Fest

Normally this time of the year we head to Columbus for the Riverfest which is a large arts and crafts festival and B-B-Q cook off on the Chattahoochee river and we always thoroughly enjoy it. However, this year the organization that puts the Riverfest together decided not to hold it this year but will resume the festivities next year which was a disappointment to us but it also gave us the opportunity to attend the Auburn City Fest instead.

Molly and I enjoyed all of the dogs we saw as we saw some little bitty ones and one that Molly said you could put a saddle on and ride it. We got there just in time to see the Silver Wings from Ft. Benning jump from an airplane and give a spectacular parachute show.

We then went to see the birds from the Auburn University Raptor center which was also an awesome experience. With all the arts and crafts to look at it was hard to do but we didn't buy anything as we all decided we would rather save our money for fun stuff on the cruise. After the City Fest we went to lunch and got B-B-Q as we thought that would make it a little more like the Riverfest and then we took Scott home as he had to clean out the pool and me and Molly wanted to go shopping!! Molly tried on several things but was unable to find anything she wanted and I bought another dress (yeah Scott already said something) but since my other one really doesn't fit anymore and I got $180 dress for $23 bucks who could blame me...lol. Well Scott and I are disappointed because we won't get Molly for three weeks but the next time we do get her it will be for the Country Fair concert which Scott, Cheryl, and have been before but Molly hasn't so we are all very excited about that and then the next weekend we will leave for our cruise!!! It is getting closer and closer.

Well until next time.....

Things that have been happening.

Nothing really exciting happened this past week as I was sick most of the week. A couple of exciting things happend toward the end of the week and into the weekend. Cheryl came down Friday afternoon and we went and got Molly Friday night and on our way back we stopped for dinner at Moe's and had a great time chatting and catching up on what has been happening. Saturday we all went to Columbus to continue with our cruise shopping and everyone (including Scott) got some new cruise clothes....I can't wait to see Cheryl in her camo pants as Molly and and I are excited about all three of us wearing ours. Sunday was kind of miserable because it had rained alot Saturday night and Sunday was very windy and a lot colder so we just stayed in and watched TV. Cheryl headed home around lunch time only to find out when she got to her car that she had a few inches of water in the front floorboard....Scott had to use the shop vac to dry it out...oh my goodness!!

One very exciting thing happened on Tuesday as Scott booked our anniversary cruise....YEAH!!!! We will be leaving September 6th and come back on the 10th. Our anniversary is on the 8th so we will actually be at sea on our anniversary. We try to do some kind of trip every year for our anniversary and found that after last year and doing a cruise that it really is the best way to go. We will actually be leaving out of Ft. Lauderdale for the first time and will go to Key West and Cozumel. Well that is about so until next time; take care.

Cruise Documents

Our cruise documents arrived yesterday via e-mail....YEAH!!! Now we have our passports, boarding documents & hotel reservations all we need to do is pack and board the ship! We took a test run this past weekend to Atlanta with our new luggage rack and it fully loaded (not to mention about 250 lbs of tile in the back of the car we were taking back) to see what we can expect with our trip to Florida. That was the worst gas mileage that we have ever gotten in our new car......42 mpg!!!! Now most people would say that isn't bad but with our little Prius we usually average 50-51 mpg. Oh well it is still better than taking the van where we might be lucky to get 20 mpg and fill it up 5-6 times at $50 or more and with this we should at the most fill up 4 times at about $25.

Happy Easter!!!!!!!

It's finally over....

I received my new laptop yesterday and HP sent me my replacement RAM today and I have to say I LOVE the new one they sent!! Now I am busy loading everything back on it and hopefully I won't have any problems with this one.

Will it finally be over tomorrow?!?!?

I sent my laptop in for repair a month ago and after going back and forth with HP they decided that they would replace my laptop because they could not get the parts to repair the one I sent in and I got the tracking number yesterday and the new one is scheduled to arrive tomorrow....yeah!!! This one is a little better then the one I had but it is just wonderful that I will finally have a computer back.

Welcome to our blog spot!!

Well since it seems like everyone else is doing it I figured why not us! Maybe by doing this I can let you know what has been happening and post pictures as well. I will have to go ahead and admit that even though I am going to try to update often (maybe once a week) I may get behind but we will just have to hope for the best.
