Shopping With My Family

Written by my friend Dong Wood

.

I really enjoy Christmas shopping, even when the streets are jammed and the stores are overly crowded. My husband and I always go shopping around Christmas time because it makes us get in the spirit Christmas. It normally snows a few times in the month of December and that as well always make us feel as if it is the holidays.

My husband and enjoy shopping at target because we always find something for everyone at reasonable prices. If we start shopping early enough, we are always able to find extra discounts and savings on select items. My husband and I shop for the kids at toys r us, but when we go to target, they go a long to help find gifts for the grandparents and the uncles and aunts. It seems as though it is a tradition we've been doing for several years and the kids enjoy just as much as we do.

My kids are 7, 00, and 04, so I always let them walk the store together to find their grandparents, something, while my husband and I shop for his parents. We all look for everyone else's presents together. I must say I enjoy this time more than any other with my family. We always eat out and catch a movie afterwards, so we always set the home security alarm from www.totalalarmsystems.com/adt-home-alarm-packages-pricing.html since we are never aware when we will be back home.

We'll See You Soon, Jamaica!

Brian (my husband’s cousin’s son) and Samantha just love to have some fun together. Just two weeks ago, they were in Bahamas to enjoy the sun and at the same time was there to watch DMB. How we wish we were there, too, but since we just had moved here and we have to be careful in our spending of money. However, my husband and I were planning to have some holiday in Jamaica as soon as we get financially settled here. Oh, I would love to go those places, too.
.
I am talking about future, but then, it is wise to check and find out in advance on how much it will cost and which place would be the best to go.

Need A Car For Hire In Spain?

My husband and I love to travel. This is our hobby. This is the advantage of having no baby yet. We love to see the places that God has wonderfully and uniquely made on every country. We want to be in awed at His creation. I believe we are not the two lonely people in the world with this dream. I know a lot of people who made a list of places they want to go before they die. I think we should start to make one, too. Definitely, Europe will be on the top of the list.

5-Star Cooking School Weekend

One of the exciting things about living all by ourselves is that we can focus more on impressing each others in many things. My husband is a good cook and I am not, but I have decided to improve in this area. My goal is that I can serve him a good dinner and become a good hostess to our guests, too.

Is it a coincidence that the Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel is hosting a Cooking School Weekend? Wow! The fact that we will be moving down to Florida in a week from now, this cooking school is really convenient to me. To those who are interested in 5-star cooking lesson, Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel will be hosting a Cooking School Weekend on October 16th and 17th. Guests will be welcomed upon arrival to sumptuous Wine Tasting Reception followed by a cooking demonstration with the hotel’s very own and pride Chef Nathan Read on the following morning. He will teach participants on how to prepare the appetizers served at the Wine Tasting. On Saturday evening, participants will experience a lavish four-course dinner paired with appropriate wines and will discuss about how to prepare it on the following day. Their theme will be fall and holiday menus.

Since holiday season is coming, this can be my chance to improve myself in the area of cooking. This unique package also includes deluxe accommodations at the Hilton Branson Convention Center Hotel for two people for Friday and Saturday evening stay all for just $398.00. Isn’t this a great deal?

This will be my chance to visit Branson. My husband had been to Silver Dollar City and to White Water and has been bragging a lot about Branson. He wants to take me there and see its beauty, too. . Oh my! This is so grand!

I'll Be Closer To You, Myrtle

In less than two weeks from now, we will be on our way to Florida. We will be living there for good. Right now we are busy packing up our things. We will only be bringing our clothes and some very important things. Part of me is sad because we have to leave some of our things, but another part of me says this is going to be exciting because everything will be new. We will be starting all over again.
.
One of the many reasons why I am so happy that we will be living in Florida is because it will be closer to South Carolina. My husband and I really love South Carolina. South Carolina will only be less than eight hours from where we will be living. It will mean we can go there as often as we can. I'll be closer to you, Myrtle.
.
Talking about South Carolina, it is always the Myrtle Beach Resort that will come to my mind. To those who have been to Myrtle Beach, I am sure that they feel the same way, too. Who would not fell in love with the exquisite sunrises and sunsets, beautiful ocean and the warm sand? If you are planning to go there and looking for Myrtle Beach Resorts, I can share you a name of the resort where comfort and luxury is the aim they give to their guest; Oceanfront Myrtle Beach Resort.

Towers on the Grove, the new and stylish resorts with family-friendly setting, lavish amenities, great view and very affordable rates.

Be There To Experience The Magic Of Myrtle

Out of the nine states that I have been to, it is the South Carolina that I fell in love with. That is why when my husband’s friend was talking about going south for 3 weeks vacation, I voiced up my suggestion not to miss to visit South Carolina. There is a whole bunch of things that you can do in South Carolina. Visit their “Welcome Center” for brochures about the interesting places that you can go and see. There beaches are just so fantastic and their extraordinary features and architectural beauty would be enough to make your vacation an ultimate experience. The place is so fabulous!

I Love Ya, Jamaica!

Uncle Therman and Aunt Anna just love to camp out. Every weekend they would go to some camping site and would stay there for 2-3 days. And lately, for a change, they talked about going to Caribbean. Well, they just deserve it after decades of working for their children and all their children now are happily and successfully settled down. I know, that is exactly what my husband wants to happen with us when we grow old, to just spend our time together in vacation.
.
Here is a lead to give you inclusive guaranteed getaways. Breeze.com is a newly launched website in service for vacation and holiday plans. I couldn’t find any better vacation deals than what they can offer. Their “ Breezes Super-Inclusive Guaranteed Getaways” offer means absolutely all inclusive Jamaica vacation, such as: deluxe accommodation, all meals and snacks, unlimited premium beverages, land & water sports and more.
.
Jamaica is always the most popular place to go when it comes to Caribbean Island. My husband planned for us to stay in one of the caribbean hotels for the “surprise future special occasion”. I did not bother asked what exactly he meant. I don’t want to spoil the surprise. He-he-he. But anyway, of course, I got curious, so I made a research about the place. Ocho Rios hotels would be the best choices. As I was reading their available amenities, I get excited and wonder when will that “surprise future” will happen.

Spend Relaxing Moments In A Hot Tub

I love spending some time in a bubble bath. It works wonders to my senses, refreshes my mind and it enables me to relax deeply. It has been a month since I had one because we have been very busy hopping from one event to another event, but I promise myself to have a bubble bath as soon as all these events are over. I love the way the bubble bath soothes the soreness in my muscles.
.
Our bath tub is big enough that it can accommodate two people and it has 40 jets that made it even better for stress reduction. It made me think that I am going to miss it when we move down to Florida. I just hope that the house that we will be moving in to will have that same kind of bath tub, too. But if not, maybe we will just buy a portable spa to install in our house. I really need to have that kid of bath tub because taking in some hot spa can help a lot. It helps me sleep better and relieves pains.
.
Let me share to you something, I saw some cheap hot tubs online. They have portable spa with 90 water jets. Oh wow! This is way better than ours here. Their products are made of highest quality materials and still, amazingly, they are on the lowest price. I am glad I found their site. It made me not worry anymore that we will have to move. They also give free stereo or free TV/DVD if you purchase a portable spa. Isn’t that cool? Check on their site more information.

Give Your Family A Wonderful Vacation

My husband is fond of grand vacation with fine dining and wonderful hotel rooms. When he went to the Philippines to meet me, we had been hopping from one hotel to another hotel. He also verbally appreciated great housekeeping and luxury room services. It is a pleasure to enjoy fantastic accommodation that this world has to offer.

Florida Beach, Here We Come!

Although we have not set a definite date of our moving to Florida, but my husband and I agreed that it should be before summer time. We want to enjoy the summer time by going to the beaches as much as we can. The waters along Florida beaches are generally warm compared to the rest of the US. Surf tends to be higher on the Atlantic coast with relatively little surf on the Gulf coast. Surf temperature is also warmer on the Gulf coast throughout the year. Florida beach sand consistency in the northwest along Pensacola, and Panama City Beach is fine and very white. Beaches along the Atlantic tend to shade towards light beige with a somewhat coarser texture and it is also suitable for driving motor vehicles.
.
Talking about beach, it leads me to purchasing new bathing suits. Amiclubwear.com has a huge collection of great swimsuits perfect for the fashion diva. Their swimwear collection are madeof high quality materials but amazingly cheaper in prices. I was browsing at all their products and I have my eyes on this, GREEN FLORAL BOW V-NECK HALTER TANKINI TWO-PIECE SWIMWEAR. I always love yellow, especially when it is about under-the-sun activities. This is relatively new to the swimsuit market; a cross between bikinis and one piece swimsuits. Tankinis offer plenty of style options to make nearly anyone look great including to those who are “semi-conservative” like me. Get ready for summer swimming. Pick your choice now.

Mosquito-Free Lawn

Few days ago, my husband was preparing a grilled beef for our dinner. The weather was good enough to stay outside the house while grilling. The dog enjoyed being outside, too. It felt so wonderful to be outside again after five months of cold weather. But there was a hindrance; the mosquitoes were trying to make us feel miserable outside.
.
Mosquitoes carry a host of diseases, including malaria, yellow fever and dengue fever. There are hundreds of species of mosquitoes belonging to the family Culicidae. It’s saliva plus the injury to the skin create the stinging and irritation that associates with mosquito bites. Mosquitoes are estimated to transmit disease to more than 700 million people annually in Africa, South America, Central America, Mexico and much of Asia with millions of resulting deaths.
.
Mosquito Magnet is the long term solution that is scientifically proven to effectively reduce mosquitoes and biting insects from your yard. It will make tremendous difference in how we will be able to enjoy our lawn. MosquitoMagnet.com provides valuable and easy-to-read tips and advice to their customers to help them keep their Mosquito Magnet trap performing at its peak all the time. They also suggested the importance of using secondary attractants; such as Octenolor Lurex. Let us help others stay away from the danger of mosquito.

Hydrotherapy Can Help Reduce The Pain

We had our honeymoon at Florida right after our wedding. We stayed in an apartment for the entire three weeks with an exclusive swimming pool. We both love it there. My husband loved to get into the pool every morning when the sun was up, while I like to get into the pool when the sun sets down. However, we need to compromise, so we both agreed to get into the pool morning time and sun set time.
.
Actually, my husband’s physician recommended him hydrotherapy at least three times a week; that is due to his back surgery that he had several years ago. In other words, it is really necessary for him to get into the pool regularly. Aquatic therapy brings relief because in the water patients can move more actively and more comfortably. It is very effective in treating many health or chronic conditions. The weightlessness of water reduces stress on joints and increases mobility without pain.
.
HydroWorx is the installer of ultimate indoor exercise pools and swim spas for home. Hydroworx pool has combined the healing properties of water with our powerful therapy jets, underwater treadmill and massage system to lessen the pain; enhance post surgery recovery; and bring relief for other health conditions. The warm water of the Hydrotherapy pools provides sensory stimulation to the entire body helping to create kinesthetic awareness of the body. By localizing the areas of pain, warm water and a spa jet massage can help reduce overall discomfort. Read the real testimonial/stories about how the aquatic therapy had greatly helped different kinds of person with health and physical issues. It is what my husband needs; it might what you need, too.
