Chocolate & Strawberries & Bananas, Oh my

My ALL time favorite sweet treat is chocolate covered strawberries, and although I have cut back on my sweet tooth, I am currently mouth wateringly in love with Godiva's strawberry & banana kabobs! Me oh my they are delightful!

Isn't he just so cute? I wanna eat him!

A shower for the best

The weekend after Labour day weekend I got to see my favorite person & throw her a bridal shower! It was a nice time with a small group of close friends, and hopefully she got some things she'll need.


Thanks to all who came for making it a special day for a great friend!

LABOUR DAY

Oh Labour day It has been so long since I have seen you, but lucky for you I will always remember the weekend my family spent basking in your sunny rays!

This year over Labour day weekend it was exceptionally note worthy and special, My family and I rescued a sea turtle... and not one of those tiny little turtles that like to occasionally take a dip in the ocean, I mean the biggins'!
How did we save a sea turtle you may ask, well have no fears I am about to tell you so just sit back and enjoy the story...


One Day an adventure seeking family set out in their boat to find a little place called Murrells inlet, having no clue how far this inlet was they took off for a day of fun ...

MOM,DAD,SISTERS,BROTHER (in-laws): ooooo I like going down the inter coastal this direction it's pretty & scenic!

1 hour later ...

MOM: I have to pee
SISTER: This sucks
CHRISTIINA: I'm hungry

2 hours later...
long story short, they turn around without finding Murrells Inlet!

2 hours late the other direction...

DAD: omg was that a sea turtle? I think he might be injured

(boat turned around)

EVERYONE: yeah he's hurt what do we do.

well I will tell you what they did.

The men folk got into the water and hoisted the big guy onto an inter tube (flipped over of course) then he & the inter tube were pulled onto the boat and driven to the "turtle lady" who conveniently lives on the same Island this family's beach house resides! turtle Lady then takes big sea turtle to the turtle hospital ( yes one really does exist) and now Calabash (which is his name given to him by the turtle hospital because of where he was found) is all well and good!

THE END

Hope you enjoyed my little story as much as I enjoyed my Labour day weekend!
