A month-long drive across the US during a vacation is expensive – especially if you’ll eat at restaurants everytime it’s time for a meal.
During our stay in El Paso, Texas (one of our stops when we were driving across the US), we just cooked rice in a rice cooker before we left the motel in the morning, bought a KFC bucket meal for take out during lunch time and then had a picnic in the park.
As you can see in the picture below, it’s not really a big park, more like a children’s playground, but that’s where our GPS sent us to. In fairness, the neighborhood was peaceful and we enjoyed our lunch.
Here’s hubby and my mother in law while they were setting up the food. Since too many cooks spoil the dishes, I decided to be just the camera woman while baby Georyl seemed to enjoy being their supervisor. Look how big her smile is.
Do you also go on picnics outdoors? Isn’t that a great family bonding opportunity?

Sheryl (Gee) says
Wow, reading my real name feels great after using “Gee” for a long time. I think I made the right decision to use my real name. 🙂
Anyway, thanks for the praise sis. She’s my hubby’s female version (birthmark lang ang namana sa akin, hehe).

Hello Gee! It’s great to see some lovely personal photos minus you, that is, LOL! I can’t wait to see more and to read some more of your escapades.
BTW, is Sheryl your new pen name? Just curious. Windy asked that too, hehe.
Anyways, regarding your query, RE: If the gravatars featured at the blogoversary contest are all current. YES. I made sure they are and if ever they do change, I will have to request them to revert to the original one for the sake of the contest. Only a few days remaining before the closing date. There’s actually one gravatar that’s a little difficult to identify coz she hasn’t left a comment of late. She said that would be a real challenge, hahaha! Her gravatar can be identifiable in the 2008-2009 comments 🙂
I hope this finds you well.
Have a great week ahead!
HUGS,
LAINY
Sheryl (Gee) says
Thanks lainy… please tell her that she needs to post a comment asap so i can beat the deadline. LOL!
By the way, Sheryl is actually my real name. Gee is my baby’s nickname (she’s the real Georyl, wink!).
I already posted some of my pics in this blog right after the template/theme change. I’ll plaster my face, I mean post more of my pics soon.
Regards.
Lainy says
YW. I need to get used to calling you “She” from now on Gee, err I meant She, LOL!
Pasaway nga talaga kasi ayaw talagang magpost ng recent comment hahaha! They want you to dig deeper. I am sure mahahanap mo rin sya and makakahabol rin before the deadline set. Still a few more weeks to go pa naman.
I haven’t visited blogs much of late coz been too preoccupied organizing my brother’s upcoming wedding. I have a lot of catching up to do. I need to dig your archives too to see all those pics 🙂
See yah!
Sheryl (Gee) says
It’s ok Lainybelle. I had read in your blog your post about your brother’s wedding and how it interferes with your online contest (LOL, just joking). Just enjoy first. I’ll be posting more pics pa naman.
Lainy says
O nga eh, hehe. I wish I have the luxury of time.
BTW, only one (1) person per entry is permissible 🙂
