Willy Nilly Friday 5 #1 - Anniversary Park

(click on photo to enlarge)
Anniversary Park, Williamsburg

If you remember the reason we were in Williamsburg/Jamestown/Yorktown a couple of weeks ago was so Nick could participate in the triathlon. First leg is a swim in the James River. He's one of those guys in the red caps. First group, green caps which are made up of military and younger guys, are just ahead, already swimming.

So now for some Friday 5's:

1) On Wednesday I took the boys to see the Lego movie. It was really cute. We laughed a lot. Regal Cinema has a summer movie special for kids. For the list CLICK HERE

2) This guy proves that there are people out there who care

3) I came up with a great idea (for me) to store recipes in Pinterest for my weekly menu. I make a new board each week labeled "Menu for the week of month/date" and new recipes I want to try out from the internet, I just pin to that folder. In the past when I want to try a new recipe, I would forget where I found it. Now it's tucked right there in my menu board!

4) Want to see some pretty pictures: CLICK HERE to see Bing's Photo of the Day Gallery.

“I like dogs
Big dogs
Little dogs
Fat dogs
Doggy dogs
Old dogs
Puppy dogs
I like dogs
A dog that is barking over the hill
A dog that is dreaming very still
A dog that is running wherever he will
I like dogs.”
― Margaret Wise Brown, The Friendly Book

Now it's your turn! Make a short list of 5 things on your mind, or long list, which ever, then link back to Willy Nilly Friday 5! Don't forget to add your link here so we can visit you! Happy Friday :)

  13. I find it really impressive to do a triathlon. And I'm sure he would say he couldn't do it without his "team" support.

  19. Bull Moose Music store here had a Legos 'firewalk' to celebrate the movie. It was a 20 foot boxed in collection of scattered legos. There was a LONG line of kids and adults wanting to talk the 'walk'. Ever walk on just ONE in the dark? Then you might get the 'pain' involved in this. hahahaha
    Your boys would have loved to try iy.
