Sorry, I’m a little late to the party this week!
This past weekend Grammy spent the whole weekend with us. We had such a wonderful time. The weather was exceptionally warm for fall and we took full advantage of it. On Saturday we headed out to our favorite beach. We packed a picnic and spent the whole day playing in the sand and enjoying the beautiful warm fall day.
Drawing in the sand is one of our favorite things to do when we are at the beach.
And of course we throw lots of rocks in the water.
Or if you are this little guy, he prefers throwing sticks.
She got her first tastes of sand today.
And apparently she liked it, because she couldn’t get enough of it.
Sand covered and all, this momma loved snuggling her on the beach.
On our way home we made a little stop to enjoy the view of my most favorite ridge to hike.
During the fall this bridge is usually filled with leaf peepers, but today we were lucky enough to have it all to ourselves.
Grammy planned on leaving early the next day, but we talked her into staying for another quick trip with us. Sunday we headed out to Mt. Washington. I guess you can say being near all the mountains gave me the HIKING FEVER!
The last time I hiked up Mt. Washington I was with my college roommate (wink, wink). Maybe we can accompany each other for a hike again… someday…and minus 4 kiddo’s!
I have big dreams of our family hiking together someday. And not just the little hikes we do occasionally with them on our backs. But the type of hikes that we used to do!
After a few more stops and Grammy staying way later then she planned, we headed home. But not without making one more stop. We found this little place not too far from home that has the sweetest little walking trails and the biggest rocks eva for the kids to play on.

Today, taking into consideration the fast life style that everyone leads, credit cards get this amazing demand in the economy. Persons from every field are using the credit card and people who not using the credit card have made arrangements to apply for just one. Thanks for expressing your ideas about credit cards.
