Interesting Fortune cookie sayings.......

 

A while ago Shari put some fortune cookie sayings on her blog along with some interesting ones from Vicki's  too, and if we ever had any interesting ones.  Well, my husband Todd and I went out for chinese tonight for a Valentine's supper.  Here are the fortune cookie sayings that we got tonight.........

Mine was, "You can be a victor without having victims."

Todd's was "When you have no choice, mobilize the spirit of courage."

How true is that, so we always have a choice even when we think we don't, have courage when life seems to be throwing us curve balls!!!!!  

We are Victor's not Victim's!!!!!!

I must admit we have has some interesting fortune cookie sayings over the years.  

God can keep secrets!!!!

Well, here are some pictures from our vacation in Mexico.  We had a great time and the extra special surprise was that our best friends of over 20 years were there.  They were able to keep it a secret and we had absolutely no clue that they were able to come.  

I say that God can keep secrets because usually I can pick up on surprises and usually know about them and God didn't give me any insight at all.  Julie and I raised our kids together and we have been through probably every milestone together.  It was so fun to just "have fun" together.  I highly recommend it to everyone.  

I just want to thank Roger and Julie for surprising us and finally after all these years going on vacation together.    Here's to more vacations and other milestones together!!!!!

This one is for Rhonda!!!!!!

I just want to say thank you to Rhonda, she posts some great recipe's. I know their not her own but she inspires us that don't bake, to bake!!!! Me being one of them.
So in saying all that, I took the liberty of taking a picture of some muffins that I baked this morning from the recipe (banana muffins) that Rhonda posted a couple of days ago.


Yes, yes I know you're shocked. Shari, I hope you didn't fall off your chair!!!!
Don't my muffins look Great!!!!!! LOL!!!!!
Hope to do another post soon...... keep watching!!!!!!!

Home For Christmas

Well, this year is a year of Firsts for our family. First time we have a son-in-law, first time our daughter is not a home and first time we are not traveling to my parent's home for Christmas. Now to give you a better understanding of this, we have traveled every Christmas for 23 years. Yes, we are starting new traditions after all this time. It was bound to happen, with work schedules and just getting tired of driving we are staying home.


I have mixed emotions about but I know with great friends and my family around me I am sure we will make some new and wonderful memories.
From my home to yours, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!!
