Best omelet ever!

Good Tuesday to you:)
If you know me well you know
That I struggle with cooking:(
I truly dislike cooking!
If I hadn't taken a picture of
This omelet Mr. SSH wouldn't have
Believed that I made it.


 It was delicious and pretty☺
I had Papa Murphy's
Garlic chicken pizza the night before.  I used the toppings inside the omelet.
It was soooooo yummy!

Have you ever surprised yourself with
Your cooking?  

Happy Tuesday:)

Swooning over a soap dispenser

Good Monday to you:)
I hope your Monday was good!
While camping this summer I found
The coolest old soap dispenser.
It looks like it came from an old
School house.
Mr. SSH doesn't agree with how 
cool it is:(

He did however install it today for me😍

Oh my.......

I am in love!


With both soap dispenser and Mr. SSH:)


What do you think?

Happy day!

Beach love

Good Wednesday to you.
There is nothing better than
A sunny day at the beach!

First stop... Dairy queen😊

The sand is warm:)

Our beach finds:

Two bamboo sticks, one golf ball and a piece of drift wood with barnacles.

Happy Wednesday!

Happy Tuesday!

Paulina plunge

Good Sunday to you.  
I hope you had a happy summer day!
We had quite the adventure today.
Mr. SSH took us on a two hour trek
To find this water slide he saw on line.
This is two natural water slides that
Locals don't want you to find!


The trail starts at McKay camp ground.

 Dylan is about to go☺

There goes sammy☺

This is the second water slide.

The kids had so much fun!

Here I am relaxing☺

We stumbled upon this waterfall as we were trying to find the slides.

It was quite beautiful☺

This is the view from the bottom.

I hope the rest of your Sunday is happy!

Lava rocks, waterfalls and a lake... Oh my

Good Saturday to you.
I hope you are relaxing!
Yesterday we had quite an adventure!


Here I am hanging off a rock😃

This bird was singing away.

This is a cool castle made of lava rocks.

Miles of lava!

Next stop was a hike.


It was beautiful.

We climbed to the top.


It was a long way down!

This is the second waterfall.

It was stunning also.

Our last stop was a favorite of mine as a teenager.

When I came here 30 years ago there was a rope swing.

Now there are logs to jump off.

The kids had south fun😊

I love summer!

Happy day!

Makenzie waterfall trail hike

Good Thursday to you.
I hope you are having lazy days
Filled with sun, good food, company and drink☺
Yesterday our family and my parents
Went on a hike near sister's Oregon.
This was a 3 mile hike with not
One but two waterfalls☺


Here is the first.
I am always in awe that water
Continually comes out!

We are ready to start our hike.


The beginning of our hike took a while because of all of the cool waterfall view points.


I was part of a snap chat with Alex.

The water was so clear.

Look at all of that water!

Look at this cool log bridge😊

We ended our adventure in sister's and everyone got homemade ice cream except me... I got onion rings☺

Enjoy your Thursday!

Beach flowers

Good Saturday to you.
The Oregon beach seems to
Grow the most beautiful flowers!
They are bigger and brighter than
My flowers at home.
I spent the day in manzanita
Yesterday and this is what I saw:

Isn't it dAinty and feminine?

Wow, this Passion flower has me speechless!





I  in love😍

Why not take time today to look at the flowers?

Happy day!

Picture frame love

Good Wednesday to you:)
I hope you are happy!
My last trip to the thrift store was a good one:)
I found that pretty glass bubble pitcher that I showed you this week
and this:
 
 
Isn't it fanciful?
 
 


I love all of its curves:)
 
 


Whoever created this picture frame is WONDERFUL!
 
 
I hope your day is filled with joy:)

Decorating with a cloth napkin

Good HOT Tuesday to you:)
I hope you are well!
I am loving this warm weather we are having!
I know I am not alone when I say I drool when I got into
Pottery Barn:)
I am too much of a cheapskate to pay original prices.
I usually wait and hope that what I love will be on a good
sale (like 60 - 70% off)
I went the other day to take a looksy:)
There was one lonely cloth napkin that was missing
its three sisters......
they had to mark it down from $30 for four to $5.97 for one.
I still felt this was outrageous!
But......
it did come home with me:)
 
 
I enjoy layering:)
 
 


Cloth napkins are a cheap way to add texture to your table.
 
 


Do you have any Pottery Barn items marked down that you love?
 
 
Happy day!
