It's time to Dare to Share! 

Happy Friday! 

Did you have a nice Easter weekend?  We had a busy one. We saw D's mom earlier in the day, and then had all the kids and the grandbaby over for a late dinner.  I had a lot of fun putting together the baby's Easter basket.  We did do a little egg hunt. I found the cutest animal eggs from Dollar Tree, and hid some around the living room and dining room. She found them with just a little bit of assistance. Next year she will be old enough to find them on her own.

While visiting D's mom on Easter,  we played a few rounds of Rummikub. It's her favorite game, and we play it often. It is similar to traditional rummy, but with tiles.  Each player starts with 14 tiles.  You can put tiles down once you have 30 points.  Well during this game, I was very unlucky and did not have enough points to lay down tiles for several rounds. Then when I was finally able to get some points, the person right before me went out and I did not get to play.   Oh well, I still had a lot of fun, and did much better the next game. 

On Thursday,  we went to one of the first games of the season for our local minor league baseball team.  We won the tickets playing trivia, and they are great seats.  It was a fun night with great weather, and our team won! 

Are you familiar with Buc-ees? If you are not, it is basically when a large gas station and an amusement park have a baby. They are mostly in the south, but they are adding several new stores around the country this year.  The first one in Ohio just opened the day after Easter.  I have been to five of them in four different states.  The place is huge and they have good food, fun merch and cheap gas. I am so excited we have one driving distance, so we can go as often as we want.  It has been extremely busy this week since they just opened, but not too bad when we stopped by after the baseball game. 

Well now that you know what I have been up to this week, I would love to see what you have been doing.  Link up and HAVE FUN!

It is time to Dare to Share! 

Happy Easter Weekend! 

This weekend is back to normal.  We are not traveling, and I have my computer plugged into the wall so there is no risk of running out of battery like last week. 

Here are some of the photos that I had planned on posting last weekend from the dance. The birthday boy we were celebrating was not in these photos, but the first photo is of one good friends from Michigan.  I met her at the dance several years ago, and it is always fun when we have the chance to get together. 

I know several people commented on my heart rock I posted for the last Dare to Share Party. .   Here is a little bit more of our rock collection that I collected with my grand baby.  She is such a nature girl already. I love that something as simple as looking for pretty rocks made her happy. 

This week I shared a fun and easy DIY on my Instagram, and TIK TOK. In case you are wondering what they are, it is light sabers made out of pool noodles. We made them for the kids at day care, and I made one for my grand baby. They all love them!  I post a lot more on my social media because I take a lot of videos. If you are on either site follow and let me know, so I can find your accounts as well.

 If you plan on having a ham for Easter dinner this year, this is one my favorite recipes for using leftover Ham.  I make Easy Leftover Ham Casserole every year. It disappears almost as fast as my Leftover Turkey Pizza. 

If you are looking for a last minute Easter activity this weekend, I have several  Easter Treasure Hunts over on my Etsy Shop.  They are digital downloads so they are perfect for last minute activities.  

Well now that you know what I have been up to this week, I would love to see what you have been doing.  Link up and HAVE FUN!
