Good morning friends.
What a colorful bunny. Not much different this weekend except a lot of phone calls from the children. One grandchild is making the newspaper with her softball pitching and the little three year old is finally gaining weight by eating her "vegTbules." They are really doing a good job making her feel special that she mostly eats vetetables. God gives the right children to the right parents. My dil has a degree in special education and knows how to deal with just about anything.

We are now working on using our vacation points so everyone can have one. That is a job and a half.

Coffee and milk
banana--HT really has big bananas lately.
8 vanilla wafers

Good Monday all-

Quiet day yesterday. Calls from all 6 grands and 2 kids. Nice ride to the casino, picked up Chinese and I had a dim sum and salad.

Breakfast-yog/fruit,little grape nuts.

Looks like it was a great Easter all around.

Good morning ladies. I'm up early with a headache so here I am. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. Ours was great because it was warm and sunny. DH and I can never resist working outside on a beautiful day.

NCN- So glad to hear your little granddaughter is eating better. And she is special. Are you going away? Where are you going? I have no idea how points work, lol.


Well it's a good news morning. I weighed in this morning and I lost 15.4 pounds in 8 weeks and my DH lost 11.8. It is so worth the effort. I'm at a good weight now if I can just maintain it.

Have a wonderful week everyone.

We own two one bedroom timeshares: One in Myrtle Beach and one in Williamsburg that work on a points system that lets us go anywhere in the Wyndham system and use them together, separate, or give them as guest reservations to our children. Our favorite thing to do is to divide them three ways and let everybody have four days each somewhere between Sunday and Thursday (weekends cost more). I borrowed some points last year from this year, so this year we are getting two different two bedroom places and inviting each child to go with us. It is a job to find the right week when everyone can travel. My husband says I have more fun planning the vacations than I do taking them. He is probably right, but our children don't usually complain about getting a free vacation. They seem to enjoy it. Using this system, I have gotten as much as five different vacations in a year with only having to pay extra housekeeping. I stretch those points like both of us stretch a dollar. It can get very complicated though.

Going to have another cup of coffee.

Hi Jeannie,Lacey,Diana,NCN,Lisa! Happy Easter!

I went up Northern California! Visited my niece's family

If you ever go to Northern California,I highly recommend this amusement park
Gilroy Gardens -- California's Only Horticultural Educational Theme Park

It's like a little Disneyworld! You grandkinds or kids would enjoy it. Even us grown ups would too

Izzy, we enjoyed the orchid festival when we visited San Diego. Man selling dated plates gave me a free plate because he liked my Southern accent.
