Is it IHOP or IHOC?

in Uncategorized on 04/06/09

On our recent vacation we ventured off course, and my SweetGirl exercised her funny. Instead of the usual trip to Denny’s for what Hubby has fondly dubbed “Heart attack on a plate” (aka Bacon, eggs, pancakes, sausage, french toast and what ever else comes on that platter) We thought we try the much talked about IHOP.

in Travel on 03/29/09

It is with great admiration that I will try to eloquently post my thoughts on the confidence of the patrons of the Typhoon Lagoon this past Sunday. It was the night before my great expedition to the dreaded water park. A place I was sure would be filled with all kinds of perfect little hard bodies and designer suits. A… View Post

Woo hoo - another amazing HomeExchange! This week Woo hoo - another amazing HomeExchange! 
This week we felt all kinds of spoiled in our cozy accommodations in gorgeous Scottsdale. We hiked local trails, snuck in a little golf, drove with the top down, ate all the food, and enjoyed a sweet sunset in our own backyard. All because #Homeexchange provided us with a unique - almost free- way to stay in Arizona and see all the things! 

We had such an amazing time we’re already planning our next adventure!
