Panama City Beach, Florida video

Day in the sand.

Yes this is Panama City Beach, Florida.  It is a wonderful December day in the sun.  The sand is clean and the water is clear yet cold.  The temperature is about 70 degrees but there is a wind chill.

It is times like this I love living in Florida.

Is this plant or animal?

They were up and down the beach.  We didn't know if they were worms, plant life, or what.

Cake on a stick for Christmas


 First you bake the cake according to the directions on the box.  After the cake cools you crumble it up.  Next add about half a container of frosting.  Mix well then role into balls and refrigerate over night.  The next day melt the candy coating stick the stick in the candy then stick into the lollipop size cake ball.  Roll the cake in the candy to coat then sprinkle and stick into a container to dry.
 As you can see we had a problem with the cake falling apart.


 Good luck.  This was fun but a little upsetting after a while.  We didn't like the taste.

cooking with grandkids

Today my grandson and I made cake on a stick.  It sounds nasty but it was fun.

In the Car for Christmas

I will head to my son's home for Christmas and get in the car to come home on Christmas day.  The drive is well worth it.  There is nothing I would rather do on Christmas than spend it with my kids and grand kids.  I cant wait to put my arms around them and tell them face to face that I love them.

Visiting Santa

My Daughter-in-law came to visit and brought my grandson.  I took him to Pear-Park to see Santa and ride the train.  We had a blast.  When he saw Santa he let go of my hand and ran up to Santa with his hands in the air yelling Santa, Santa, Santa!  We got out picture with Santa then went to enjoy a Cinnamon bun and juice.  On the train ride my grandson waved  and yelled Ha, to everyone.  When the ride was over the man running the ride said he had never had a child so enthusiastic and that he even had fun on this trip.  After a few hours of shopping we ate lunch and went to join his mother.  I live for day's like this one.

It is back

The desire is back to start quilting again.  It didn't go away but I just didn't have the energy.  I pulled out an old jacket and realized how worn it is.  I believe I can quilt over it and make it look like new.  Quilting over an old jacket could make it warmer and give it a new look. 
Time will be a problem but if I work ten minutes a night I may finish it by next November.  I am ready to start again.  I also realize that I never published the picture of the sleep cap I did last year.  One more project to finish.
