Our Beach trip and The Great Pumpkin Drop...

What a fun weekend we had. I love doing things with Mel!

As you can tell...it was beautiful weather:


I put my girl scout lessons to work and built this fire on my very first try:

Mel and I on the beach making s'mores:



Him and I went to our beach house this last weekend. While there, we went to watch a thousand pounds of pumpkins (2 pumpkins) dropped from a crane onto a Jeep wagoneer. It was quite a site to see, and below are some pictures of it before and after.

We went down to the beach on Friday night and enjoyed BEAUTIFUL weather-calm, warm and so still. We roasted marshmallows and ate them between chocolate covered graham cracker cookies. An easy version of s'mores.

I got my seagulls put on the post outside the house. I got them while I was in Rockaway Beach with my Bunco girls the weekend before this weekend. A fun time was had by that bunch of girls! I was told that I couldn't discuss what went on there.

We did also do a little work, as we planted 10 blue spruce trees down in the yard:
