Social Sunday on a Monday

1. What is your favorite kind of surprise?

I love to come home and some chore I have been dreading is done....hint hint family :)

2. Flowers or Chocolate?

Definitely flowers, I will buy my own chocolate, but I never buy myself flowers.

3. What is your favorite summertime activity?

I love to go to the pool and soak up some sun while gabbing with some great friends. I also love to just lounge outside on my deck by myself, with friends, or with family. The deck is truly my favorite place.

4. Do you have any vacations planned this summer?

Why yes we do!! Boston for my brother in law and soon to be sister in law's wedding. Gettysburg on the way out and Niagara Falls on the way back.....yeah!!!

5. Favorite summer holiday?

July 4th for sure. It is always spent having a great time with my family :) Except for the year Doug spent it in the hospital (not so fun).

6. Dream vacation?

A Caribbean cruise. The idea of sun, food, and relaxation sounds like a little heaven on earth to this girl.

What's going on around here....

I am joining up with The Simple Woman's Blog to bring you my weekly day book. Link up and share yours and read the other links.... For today...February 2nd (Groundhog's Day) 6 more weeks of Winter was the prediction. Outside my window....Snow. We got enough to cover everything, but not the storm that was predicted.

I am wearing...my pajama pants and an Oklahoma Sooners hoodie, this may be what I stay in all day long :) I am wondering....if raising teenagers will tur...

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me. It is hosted by Living to Tell the Story . My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night. My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations. Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen. They were talking about casual and personal things. I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well. It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee. My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2. I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week. I am ready to shut the books on this we...
