Peeps Trip Easter 2011

This year we spent Easter with the Peeps at the Gaylord National Resort Center in National Harbor MD. We had a great time at the Peeps Store and walking around the other stores. The Peeps store had any type of Peep item you would ever want. The people who ran the store were impressed with mine & Bri's peep tattoo -- even taking pictures of them. At 5 pm they had  Peep family craft activities. Big yellow Peep chick was there over seeing what we were making ! Turned out we had to decorate a gingerbread house with candies provided by the First Born company (maker of Peeps !) Then came the main event "the egg hunt" !!!!! If you found the golden egg you spent 2 nights at the Peep factory ( First Born ) in Bethlehem Pa... so JR was a major mission ! The hotel had a huge lawn that went down to the Potomac River. Needless to say some other kid found the egg but it was still great fun for JR !

Cape May NJ -- May 2011

We used the RV for the first time on a long Mother's Day week end to Cape May NJ.. We visited the boardwalk in Wildwood NJ. On Friday we took the Cape May Ferry over to Delaware & did some shopping. The kids came down on Saturday & spent the rest of the time with us. Sunday was Mother's Day  -- did our usual Uncle Bill's Pancake stop & visited the shops. Beautiful weather & a great time.

Attempting this blog .....

Since I have over 50 pairs of UGG's and love to travel I figured this would be a great blog name :)
I have a great guy & wonderful family to share my life experiences with. I have a son & daughter and 2 great grandkids. In addition I have 3 feline babies . I recently purchased an RV to make traveling more fun. My goal is to visit all 50 states including some of the odd & out of the way spots in the USA ... basically weird USA sites.
I was raised on the beach & love the ocean but after a taste of Wyoming that is a very close second love !
Guess this is a start & will post more later. Hope you enjoy my posts :)

Besides traveling I enjoy trading postcards and collecting floaty pens.
