(Geeez, what happened? everyone's too cheap now-a-days to send you one in the mail?)

MEAL TIME!





Hey,
How does everyone feel about doing the same thing as last year?
I think every one of the Breakfasts and Dinners were AWESOME and we saved a ton of money as well by eating at "home".
You know it's not too early to start planning those menus!
Post your plans HERE!

                                                           Geeez, I'm getting hungry already!

The Ocean City Boardwalk...


                                     About the Ocean City Boardwalk in NJ
Ocean City, New Jersey - The 2.5 mile (4 kilometers) boardwalk in Ocean City has classic attractions and many newer additions. The world famous Gillian's Wonderland Pier boasts a 140-foot Ferris Wheel that can be seen from miles around, with views of Ocean City and the surrounding communities from the top. Other rides include roller coasters, bumper cars, water rides, and tens of miniature golf courses. Shops sell souvenirs and snacks, such as cotton candy, popcorn, pizza, and ice cream. Other boardwalk activities include enjoying the sunrise with a leisurely walk, a brisk jog, a bike tour, a ride on a surrey cart, or a meal at one of the many ocean front cafes.

Ocean City NJ: Very family friendly, clean, and safe! Ocean City has the modern boardwalk for the wholesome crowd. Enjoy relatively gentle amusement rides, water slides, or play miniature golf. Enjoy Philly cheese steaks, pizza, fudge, and freshly made caramel-candy popcorn. Watch salt water taffy and fudge being made. Ocean City is a dry town and alcoholic beverages are not sold within the town limits. There are liquor stores very close however across town limits. Shop in clean and classy boardwalk stores and boutiques. Several surfer shops feature clothes and surfing equipment. The ocean side Music Pier offers variety for the whole family, from live music to silly contests, like their annual beauty pageant, the Flower Show, the Miss New Jersey Pageant, and the famous Ocean City Pops that calls the Music Pier home. Art and craft exhibits line the boards in warm weather. Dress is casual-preppy.

Seafood in Ocean City!

                           

Doing a bit of research on Seafood Restaurants in Ocean City, this restaurant was voted one of the BEST! Check out the link...

Of course, I think it would be hard to beat the seafood dinner we all had last year in OBX when we all chipped in and bought it! Anyone feel the same way? Post your comments if you would possibly like to do that again this year!

The NEW arrival!

Well, as you all know by now, looks like there's going to be another new member
of the family. YAY!!!
However, since the arrival date is right around the time of our Ocean City trip, we were thinking about changing the date to possibly June...
How does this work for everyone and how do you feel about this?
Post your comments!

Gillian's Wonderland Pier!


Should be great for the kids (and adults) when they get bored or just tired of relaxing and drinking...LOL

REGISTER for Fishing!

Hey Everyone,
I found out that you do NOT need a license to fish the saltwater surrounding Ocean City but fishing is subject to quotas, size limits and other regulations. While no license is required, saltwater fishers are required to complete the FREE NJ registry!
