1. Shadow of The Wind by  Carlos Ruiz Zafón - Barcelona, 1945: Daniel, an antiquarian book dealer’s son discovered a mysterious book entitled The Shadow of the Wind, by one Julián Carax. But when he sets out to find the author’s other works, he makes a shocking discovery: someone has been systematically destroying every copy of every book Carax has written. In fact, Daniel may have the last of Carax’s books in existence. Soon Daniel’s seemingly innocent quest opens a door into one of Barcelona’s darkest secrets, an epic story of murder, madness, and doomed love. It started out bit slow and I wondered where it was going.. but once it picked up momentum this book was amazing.. it was crazy dramatic, lost loves, incest, teenage pregnancies and more crazy stuff but so much fun. This book was quite a surprise and highly recommended! 2. A Clash of Kings by George R. R. Martin - This is the second installment of the Game of Thrones series. At a certain time each year I start to y

Looking back at 2015

Image
Every year we say it.. what a blur, where did that year go? 2015 not so much.. it has been a long year and like that last year or two quite tiring.. mostly because there is just so much happening. So many balls up in the air, we are still working on settling in. Settling in the house we've had for almost three years now, the fact that we have two children now and the fact that on and off we have had a few temporary and permanent family members in the house. Each time one arrives or leaves we have to readjust.. We started the year with a big birthday.. H Turned One  and a few months later and D Turned Five                          We squeezed in a little travelling.. we flew down to Florida with my parents and the boys on their first taste of Disney and the Magic Kingdom . We also spent some time at SeaWorld , Legoland and the Florida Keys   A few months later we made a trip to New Orleans  and some more New Orleans   Our other adventures were closer to

Happy Holidays

December is a busy month.. even though we don't celebrate any of the December holidays this month is always busy.. the year is ending and weather is cold and the days short..

We still have work going on inside the house, we also have little vacation planned so I'm going to wish you all a very very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Kwazy Kwanzaa and everything in between. video taken by me of the Christmas Tree Light Show on the pond in the town of Historic Smithville See all in next year..

Camden Children's Garden

Sometime ago I had found some tickets for Camden's Children's Garden and we picked a nice warm September day (sorry these trips are months old but time is not my friend and things pile up..) and headed over for a few hours. It was a small cute place for little kids.. six or seven being the oldest. It's right next to the Adventure Aquarium which we haven't been to in a while and hope to go back soon.  The boy's started the day with the splash pad which surprisingly initially freaked our always ready for adventure H out a bit. After drying off and a change of clothes we went off to explore the rest of the small park. We found Poe, upcycled animal creations and D's favorite a train! There was a carousel and an Alice and Wonderland themed area with giant tea cups and a giant up cycled from car parts dinosaur and a Butterfly Pavilion.. plus a few more.. The place has I'm sure seen better days.. but on a nice sunny days
