Mini Vacation

Well, it's been a while since I last posted here, as my family and I have been very busy. Last month we were fortunate enough to have the chance to go to Great Wolf Lodge for a long weekend wtih the kids. It's a place where we created memories to last a lifetime. The indoor water park and all the other fun things offered were so amazing. Kaelyn still talks about it and would like to go back with her cousins sometime. I can't argue with that. We'll definitely be going back!

Taking A Trip To See Grandpa

Taking A Trip To See Grandpa

I appreciate the guest post, Emerson Moses

While many people will take a trip to see parents or other relatives, I try to take a trip to see my grandfather. He recently just turned 90 so the amount of time that he has left is starting to dwindle. Since it is becoming so short I always try to talk to him or visit him once a year and the holidays are going to be the best time to see him. However, he does live quite a distance away so it does make it hard to see him.

When I go to see him I know the trip will be long and often can be boring for children. However, I know that they love the trip just by the joy that I can see in their faces. The main problem that I have is trying to keep them entertained, but with the advent of some of the modern electronics that are portable I am starting to have an easier time keeping them entertained.

Once I arrive I call the neighbors to check on the house to ensure that everything is okay with it. However, I know that if the home had been broken into I would have gotten a call from the security company because I remembered to set the home security alarm systym by ADT security before I left on the trip with my wife and kids.

United States Gold Bureau

Have you ever thought about investing with silver or gold? If so, you may want to check out United States Gold Bureau. I have been searching through their site and have been impressed with what I have found. They make it easy to purchase silver, gold and other precious metals and coins. They even arrange for immediate delivery and safe storage. With the world demand exceeding production...now is a great time to buy silver...but I'd love to buy gold coins too.

With the state our economy is in, have you considered investing? I guess that's the main reason we've been talking about it lately. I'm not sure if we will...but if we do...we'll definitely be looking further into US Gold Bureau!

Gold Bullion

The United States Gold Bureau makes it possible (and easy) to purchase silver, gold and other precious metals. I have been looking into this quite some time and have finally talked my husband to check into it with me. We're both very impressed with this company especially and like how they deliver immediately or have it arranged for safe storage. Now is a great time to buy silver, but I'd even be happy to buy gold bullion too. I'm not sure what we'll do yet, but it's definitely something we're considering....especially with the state our economy is in. How about you? Something you've considered?

Zappos.com ~ Christmas Shopping Made Easy!

With Christmas just around the corner many of us may be looking to pick up those last few gifts, or even a little something for ourselves to wear at the next holiday party. Whatever the reason, one place you can count on to provide a great selection of everything from shoes and handbags to clothing and houswares is Zappos.com!

I have browsed the Zappos website several times before, and currently have my eye on a great pair of Dr Martens shoes! I don't often go out and buy myself apparel items, especially this time of year with so many other people to buy for...however, I have lots of family get-togethers over the holidays and want to look my best. I'm not sure if I'll go with boots or shoes yet, but either way...knowing their Dr Martens lets me know they'll be of the highest quality and something that will last for a very long time.

If you're finishing up your Christmas shopping, definitely check out Zappos.com! You won't be sorry you did.
