Guess Who's Coming To Dinner...

We are at the Country Estate this weekend. Moo-Moo and my Brother in Law are driving down for dinner.  I have never had the chance to cook for Moo-Moo  so , I am throwing down with a Lasagna.  She tried cooking Italian  before and it was not pretty - when a 5 year old complains about Spaghetti you know its bad!
I am going over the top today. I got up early and to the store for every thing I would need for
my most incredible lasagna and salad dinner.

We hope to have fun with our bows as well. Mine only has a 35# draw on it. Moo-Moo said she would try it.

I promise, more to come on tonight's events later. And just for Rob I will try to snap a pic.

A little bit of this and A little bit of that...

It's Wednesday. I have been a bit under the weather which is why I have not posted much these past couple of days. But, Now I am feeling much better.
It has been very hot here, afternoon storms kick up and provide much needed rain and a lightening show for us.
The other day after dinner, I mustered the energy to go out to the beach with Senior and the boys. First time this summer. Moo-Moo can't believe we have not been yet...but as I told her.. "ummm I have a life"...lol
Caught some good pics, including this one :

Every time we see the horses on the beach, Senior and I joke about who picks up their "poo"  lol

This morning I saw something I have never seen. I had taken the dogs out, and saw a bee flying around my cucumbers, it landed on one of the blooms and did what bees do to flowers.
Which leads me to my next question. The other day I was buying some local honey for my dad.
but, there were so many types.  I picked one that said "wildflower".   What is the difference?

Saturday we got to meet my nieces Fiance, he is a really nice guy. We like him. How in the world My niece hooked him is beyond us!.  That same day I also worked up a trade. I traded my Ruger 10/22 for a compound bow. I know I probably got the short end of the deal, but I grew up with the family of the young man I traded it too, he is supporting a young wife, and 2 small children, and could not afford to buy something that nice out right.   But, now I need to get my new bow a tune up and adjusted for me. He had it at 55#s pull, and that is a bit too much for me.
Senior is getting a "diamond" brand. It comes in the mail today..he is "Over the moon" excited about it too.

Today I am on the search for boxes, another community garage sale is this weekend. the proceeds we make will go to giving my Cherokee a tune up, and changing of his fluids. My goal is to out right sale my Subaru to carmax, and drive the Cherokee a while. How long the while will be I am not sure, but I am hoping to cut in to some of our debt, and this is one way to accomplish that- We will flip that car payment and put that money on something else so we can pay that item down faster.
 Then when we see where Senior will land a job in logistics, we will go from there with the purchase of another vehicle and keep the Cherokee as our "fun/ project" car.   We have been looking at the Nissan Xterras...and No way will I buy anything new.. 

Okay, so that is that. Have a happy Wednesday !
