A Legacy Walk through Marine Corps History The Timeline Exhibit of the National Museum of the Marine Corps We were fortunate to be part of the opening ceremonies for the Marine Corps Museum. We were stationed near Quantico, Va, so we were able to watch as the museum was constructed. On opening day, people were bused in because the crowds were so great. Marines young and old, activity duty, reservists, and retirees showed up for this momentous occasion. Finally, the Marine Corps had a place to where people could come together and remember the long, illustrious history of the Marine…

Review: Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball

Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball Donita K. Paul Mischievous matchmakers ~ Two special tickets ~ One unlikely couple I think it’s only fair to say that I tend to be picky when it comes to any romance novels/novellas – even Christian ones. More often than not, I will pass on them unless I have recommendations from someone who knows me and my taste. That being said, I’m a sucker for Christmas stories, so I decided to check out this book when it was offered for review. Cora is still trying to figure out the whole Christian walk. Cora knows…

Sometimes, the prospect of washing all of those dishes after having guests over can make even the most gracious host/hostess cringe. After preparing a lovely meal with desserts and happily entertaining guests, it can be a daunting task to wash all of the dishes. At times, washing all of those dishes can lead to a less than happy host/hostess. She (or he) may end up being a little resentful or irritated with those who are not helping with the party clean-up.

Pet Gifts from Hartz

Our “puppy” loves his toys, but he is also very hard on those toys. If the toy has a squeaker in it, he’s usually going to find a way to get that squeaker out. In the process, we usually end up with stuffing all over the floor. Needless to say, we’re always on the lookout for durable toys that he will like. When we received the Hartz® Dura Play® Ball and Tuff Stuff™ Nose Divers™, “puppy” immediately grabbed the Tuff Stuff™ Nose Divers™ duck. It quickly became his favorite toy. He carried it around. He tossed it around. He played…
