Slices of Life

Wow! July just flew right by in the blink of an eye.  Between our 4th of July weekend, my birthday (week long) celebration, and our overnight trip to Maine we had a fabulous month! Today, I'm linking up with  X-tremely V   for The Feels and though the questions are the same each month the answers are always different since they're based only on our current month. Favorite Meal-- We had so many great ones this month-- even eating out in 4 or 5 restaurants!  But my favorite meal had to be my birthday dinner.  My husband grilled up rib eye steaks and we had corn on the cob, squash casserole, baked potatoes, and salad topped off with Alec's triple cheesecake cups.  YUM! Favorite Movie/ TV Show/ Book-- Movie: Book Club-- I re-watched it this month after Shelbee mentioned it on her blog and I had forgotten how much I enjoyed this movie!  Tv Show: Outer Banks.  I had started watching this last month but ...

I can not believe another month has passed us by!  The time is just flying by and while I know we had a good month I really struggled to fill in my list this time around. Today, I'm linking up with  X-tremely V   for The Feels and though the questions are the same each month the answers are always different since they're based only on our current month. Favorite Meal-- Terriyaki chicken, grilled cheesy potatoes, corn on the cob, and salad.   Favorite Movie/ TV Show/ Book-- Movie: 2012 (to be honest it's the only movie I can remember watching this month). Tv Show: Dexter; it's not my normal genre of show but I just can not stop watching it!  Book:   Inside Out by Demi Moore Favorite Activity: Kayaking!  The weather has just been perfect for leisurely kayak rides.  Favorite Moment: Surprising my husband with new chairs for Father's day. I don't normally manage to sur...

For today's post I'm linking up with  X-tremely V   for The Feels and though the questions are the same each month the answers are always different since they're based only on our current month. Favorite Meal-- I think I'd have to say this Ham and Alfredo Lasagna.  It was pretty much an experiment and we loved how it turned out.  Favorite Movie/ TV Show/ Book-- Movie: Jumanji : The Next Level  Tv Show: It's a tie between:   Council of Dads (on Hulu).  A great new tear jerking family drama.  Have you seen it?  & Sweet Magnolias (on Netflix) based off the books by  Sherryl Woods.   Book: I read the whole Beach Plum Cove series by Pamelala Kelley and I just LOVED it! Favorite Activity:  Once again I'd have to go with hiking since that's pretty much the only activity we can do.   Favorite Moment: Finishing up Alec'...

For today's post I'm linking up two of my favorite blogging monthly link ups; The Feels and What's In My...  Normally, I'd write these as two separate posts but I have so many great blog posts going live this week I figured it was just easiest for me to combine them! The feels is hosted each month by X-tremely V  and though the questions are the same each month the answers are always different since they're based only on our current month. Favorite Meal--  My husband convinced me to buy a whole beef rib eye at BJ's and we brought it home, cut it up following a video we found on-line and honestly-- It was the BEST steak dinner we have ever had.  We paired the steak with sauteed mushroom, steamed broccoli and baked potatoes and even my boys all said they liked it better than anything we've ever even gotten at a restaurant.  That is really saying something since my boys are always partial to filet.   Favorite Movie/ TV Show/ Book--  ...
