Jamaica Bound

Matt and I finally booked our Summer vacation. This year we decided to go to Jamaica. I can't wait. We are staying at an all-inclusive resort. We both have never been there. So, it will be a new experience for both of us. All the reviews sound amazing. I really want to try the Jeep safari, horse back riding, or zipline.

Here is a list of what is next on my list:
1. Italy Tour
2. Canada
3. Hawaii

Cookbook Time


Alright. I finally finished most of my cookbook on tastebook.com. With still 13 recipes to go I decided to go ahead and print a copy for me and add more later. Right now I'm making sure they are all right. I tend to change them while I'm cooking and not write it down. So, last night we made Chicken and Wild Rice. Boy is that one yummy. I totally changed it though. I hate doing dishes so anything I can condense to one pot the better. I gave myself a Nov deadline for the entire project. Perfect timing for Christmas:) It has some staple recipes from the last cookbook that are a must. So, feel free to give the old one away. Let me know if you want a copy of the new one.

Other than that Matt is working on our backyard. He is putting a path in around the side yard. I can't wait until it is done b/c I'm going to put a flowerbed in next to it. I really want to put a small pool back there or at least a hot tub. The birds in our front tree left the nest. It was kinda cool watching them as they grew.

Last weekend was a lot of fun. We went on a jog Saturday morning. It was very relaxing. I'm going to try to do it every Sat, Tues, Thurs. I missed yesterday already. Opps. After that I worked on my book and Matt worked on the yard. Sat night we went to the Rough Riders game. I love our season tickets. Then Sunday we taught sunday school. They were so funny. One told every Dad that came in Happy Fathers Day. It was so cute. After that we went to my parents for some lemon chicken and pool time.


I hope everyone had a great Fathers Day.
