Happy New Year

Looking “Fore” Some Fun

This morning started with Tripp and I playing on the I-Pad.

Rhea and her daddy went to hit golf balls and the rest of us went to the Forest Preserve.We took a little picnic with us.After everyone was through, we met up to play putt-putt. Some of our party got a hole-in-one.Then we went to supper and enjoyed a great meal.We got to see boats being moved in and out of the water.

Fun in the Sun

The morning started a little slow for some…but Tripp always hits the ground running!Big Mike is always on the cutting edge of fashion…

The little family head out to get more things listed on their scavenger hunt of Sea Pines.We met up with them for lunch at Salty Dog…We rode on the beach…before heading back to the condo and then to the park across the street.

There were lots of bikes and people around the marina.

Tripp got in another game of foosball before he went to the fire pit.

Another night of bowl games on the TV.

Rainy Start

We woke up to rain this morning and it continued until early afternoon. We cooked breakfast...bacon, eggs and biscuits and played lazy all morning. We had some errands to run this afternoon and included a little shopping at Target and the outlet stores. For supper, we went to the Sea Shack and everyone enjoyed their meal. We came back to play foozeball, work on the jigsaw puzzle,make candy ornaments and suckers and watch bowl games.

Ending 2011

As 2011 comes to an end, we are enjoying some time at Hilton Head, SC.

We had lunch in and supper at Crazy Crab but when were finished eating when we realized that no picture of the food had been taken. Watching the bowl game, playing with Legos, being on the computer, etc. filled our evening hours.

Maybe tomorrow we will be more productive, but probably not! We are here to rest, relax and recharge!

Wordless Wednesday

Another Football Game

We drove to Texas for this football game and the one on Thanksgiving night. This was Mike’s 45th class reunion at A&M. We went to the dinner on Saturday night but didn’t take any pictures…we knew that you wouldn’t know any of those people and neither did Mike!!

Here are some snapshots that we took before and during the game.

And yes, the one yell leader is quite tall!

Sid and Mike were roommates at A&M.

Muffin top and boots…

The graves of the deceased mascots…more at the last picture.

Big George was being honored…

The fly-over were 3 Ospreys from California.

Block T with the entire Corps of Cadets …the first time since 1956…Mike never got to do this.

In front of the graves is a scoreboard so the “dead dogs’ can see the score.!
