Friday was an exciting day because I was able to start work from home so that Emily and I could divide and conquer the two school functions that were both happening at 10 am. Sawyer has a Halloween party at his school and Hunter had the Boosterthon Fun Run at his school. Since Emily is the classroom mom at Sawyer’s… Read more »
As I mentioned in my previous post about our grilled breakfast pizza, we are still addicted to our new favorite hobby, grilling pizza. Today’s project was to create a delicious grilled buffalo chicken pizza. I set the bread machine in the afternoon as Emily worked almost the entire day pressure washing the front of the house. When the dough was… Read more »
One of the Hayes family’s favorite ways to usher in the Fall is to pack a picnic basket and head to Fort Wilderness at the first sign of sub 100 degree weather. This year was no different. We got our drinks and snacks packed and ready to go, stopped at the brand new Jersey Mike’s Subs on Narcoossee (they were… Read more »
It was roughly three years ago when Hunter got the itch to try his hand at pet ownership. At the time we thought fish would be a great foray into this venture because how hard is it to keep a fish alive, right? Turns out we have a gift for short stories when it comes to tales of fish.

Our weekend got off to a nice relaxing start as Hunter got to crash with Grandma and PopPa on Friday night and Emily and I enjoyed some wings from the Nona Tap Room. A pretty healthy end to a day that started with Breakfast Burritos from the Wawa which opened down the street on Thursday. We enjoyed our dinner… Read more »

As I awoke on day four I had my fingers crossed as I approached our curtains hoping when I pulled them back I would see clear skies over Castaway Cay, and I did! I lightly encouraged the troops to get their butts out of bed because it was beach or bust today. I am sure this will come as a… Read more »
Day three on the Disney Dream was yet another perfect day on the ship. When we awoke we were still making our way to the island of Nassau in the Bahamas. Due to the fact that we made the most out of the first two days everyone was quite tired and not chomping at the bit to spring out of bed… Read more »
I would argue there is no better place in the world to wake up than Castaway Cay. Even though the weather was a bit overcast it still was truly awesome to be docked at the amazing island. Emily was smart and had ordered a few things from room service to help tide us over until breakfast (only on a cruise… Read more »
Today was the day we had been looking forward to for a while – Disney Dream embarkation day for our 5 day cruise to the Bahamas! Emily did her usual amazing job getting us packed and prepared for five days of fun and sun at sea. We spent the morning locating and crossing off items on her laminated packing lists… Read more »
