Here goes Nothing

Jamie and I have wanted to try and dehydrate fruit for some time now but we couldn't find the dehydrator. Well when mom and I were cleaning out the basement last weekend we found it on a shelf in the way back.  So tonight on a whim I found a can of pineapple and Jamie cut up an apple.  In 24 hours I will let you know how they turn out. 

View from my Classroom Window

Yesterday was the first real snow day we have had so far. And go figure we went to school.  This was taken as the kids were walking in the classroom.

Shoes

I used to run about 3 miles everyday then life got in the way.  Today I started running again, I don't know why I stopped!!  I can't wait to put my shoes back on tomorrow and run. 

Jelly Fish

So these pictures are not from today but when I was going through my camera roll I couldn't resist sharing these. I absolutely love the aquarium and the jelly fish in particular. Ever year we go the Friday after Christmas.

In love with...

I am in love with the fact that Jamie and my dad get along so well. I snapped this picture while the two of them were researching our latest family project: history of Assateague. 

Here is another I snapped today. It is amazing that these two were next to each other with out fighting. Got to say "sibling love".

Winter Moon

I couldn't help but snap this picture as soon as I was done prepping dinner. We are in for a chilly winter night.

New Years at Assateague

What a great way to spend the first day of 2015!!! 

We decided to drive to the state line..

Once there we lost mom and dad. Come to find out they drove behind the dunes to one of the old houses. As soon as we learned that we jumped back in the truck to drive it ourselves. This house has been abandoned for atleast 50 years. It was the start of an adventurous day.

The house was in rough shape but it still had so much character and history. 

As we were walking around we found a stair case that must had been a widows walk at some point. The view was outstanding!!

Mike saw this as we were getting ready to leave I had to get a picture. In the end Jamie dug out 6 whole bricks that we put in the truck. Once back on the beach mom wanted more so they went back and got 7 more.

Unfortunately my camera died half way through the day so the rest of these were taken with my phone. 

Jamie and I took a walk right before sunset, it was gorgeous.

I'm loving the start of 2015!!!
