Days To Remember G's Blog

So I noticed last night on an ad that there would be an Art Festival in downtown Cocoa Village today.

So we went back this morning.

We checked out the park, walked and looked at the exhibits, and also......

checked out some indoor studios.  This one, above offers camps and classes for kids.

Perhaps, some kids of mine would like to take a clay class with this nice lady?

Maybe then I can sneak off to Ossorio's for some more ice cream??? 

We played in the alleys.

And watched people eat some lovely brunch at this cute little outdoor eatery, with hot pink umbrellas. 

Last night we went up to Cocoa Village.

I did a wee bit of research before going on restaurants.

I found a place called.....

We had.....some AWESOME food, with some good friends, and a good time. 

So their sign it is advertising truth. 

And I like TRUTH!

Here is  a shot of the place just South of Murdocks.

We stopped by the Porcher House, got to go inside.

Magpie picked some flowers. 

We also had some awesome ice cream.....not pictured at Ossorio's.

Saturdays come, Page wakes early and usually takes two little boys to get crossiants at BK.  They like to play in the play area.

Some Saturdays the boys go on other adventures.

Last Saturday morning in the early fog, the boys went fishing.

Maggie Beth and I.......ummmm.......we slept and usually are sleeping on Saturday mornings. 

A little train track building and snuggling together to watch some Thomas the Train, Misty Island Rescue.

So with some help from an awesome friend who watched our kiddos, I whisked Page away for an evening, for his birthday!  We went to Orlando and stayed at the Gaylord.  One of our favorite little places to go for a little get-a-way.  

We practically had 24 hours to rejuvenate, relax, spend time in uninterrupted conversation, walk holding hands and not holding a wee ones hand (not that that is a bad thing I love those little hands).  It's just nice to spend time together as husband and wife, as friends who really enjoy each others company, and enjoying time in the pool, hot tub, eating at a little Mexican restaurant, going to get ice cream (not having to share with little mouths), going to sleep whenever you want to and waking up to peacefulness.  It's a sweet time and I am thankful that Page wanted to have a get-a-way for his birthday. 

That is what he asked for, so I am thankful that our wonderful friend was so willing to take care of our little kiddos.  I think that our kids love Mrs. Casey, since we do not have family in this part of the U.S., she has become like an Aunt to our kids and her husband like an Uncle.  We are so thankful for her!  And the kids were pumped that she was watching them, they got to go to the park and have an extraordinary time!  

Happy Birthday Page!!!

Today's Hezekiahism & Elism while walking into Sears to get Page's birthday present.

Hezekiah: "Did you know that there are toilet trees?"

Page and I, "Really?"

Hezekiah, "Yeah, on the radio at the Hubbard house there are toilet trees."

Eli, "Yeah, on the radio there are toilet trees."

I said, "Do you mean toiletries? Like shampoo, toothpaste, things they are collecting for this house or something?"  I still have no idea what they were talking about for this house....

We asked them more about toiletries, like what that meant.

Hezekiah, "That means there are toilets in the trees."

Eli's answer, "That means there are toilets hanging from the branches of the trees."

Toiletries I never knew you would be so fun!

 I was cracking up in Sears! Too funny!
