Turn Off The Tap

This is part two of my adventure blog searies with my two wonderful nieces Missy J and Big D.


Today we took a short day trip to see some of the local sights including a waterfall.

 We had a blast but the best part was when Missy J charged ahead saying "I have to turn off the tap the park is closed and they left it running!"

Three girls a boat and a baby!

So... here we go.  I was soooooooo lucky to have my two nieces come and stay with me over spring break and this is the first blog of our adventure. 

I had to cross the ocean to pick them up.  Not that you can tell but those grey/black dots in the water are porpoises.

This is me my little Tasty Tot, Missy J and Big D with our tickets.

this is us at the departures ready to go!!!!

i just had a quick minute to hug my cakey sister!

missy J overcame her fear of boats

the ride was fun....

...but long

little tasty tot was happy the whole way

PINK!!!

 Shopping with that guy I married.
Me"Need this spray paint"
Him "What are you going to paint?"
Me"something pink"





Being I am NOT one to make extra waste for the earth and there for if it still works I still keep on using it. This eye sore is a piece of proof. I could replace this for  a few $  but, why???

First please forgive the side ways photos the site is not helpful today. Here is my very old step stool. I think in fact I retained  it from my parents garage. I do use this every day beside the tub to sit on while I bath my baby.

Anyways you can see it is not pretty but, it still works like a hot damn  after 10 + years of use so, I thought hey why not?

I have never tried to spray paint plastic before but, I hear you can so I first primed it out. ( Again sorry for the side ways photos. It is making me super cranky)

PINK I will let you know if the paint stays put on the plastic or not.
