Long, Fun Day...

Woke up around 8:30am ish...got all showered and ready to pick up our kiddos in Salem! YAY! I missed those lil' buggers!! Enjoyed our time chatting in the car on the drive down...Laughing and being silly...Stopped at Woodburn for a potty break and Cam took me to the Restaurant there since he knows I hate to potty in Gas Station restrooms...but the restaurant restroom was being cleaned...SO the gas station it was...I walked in...directly to the Womens bathroom opened the door and....WOW! It was like a SPA ....fancy paint...a vessle sink...the potty had 2 buttons...one for #1 and the other if you had bigger issues...haha... It was clean and even smelled great too! so YAY!! for a fresh clean area to take a potty break! it was ALMOST as nice as the Hooters Bathrooms!! (o;

Hopped back in the car...and headed south...Picked up the kiddos around 12:30pm and then went on search of a Taco Time...I was craving a vegie burrito ...Had a nice lunch and Connor even offered to pay! What a good boy!! He loves his Mama! and I Love him RIGHT BACK!

Tummies full we got back on the road and saw a goodwill up ahead so we all took a moment to go in there and peek around...We didn't find anything we couldn't live without...we mostly just found funny stuff and laughed and laughed about it...LOL...we're goofy! The kiddos had a great time tho...Nina (our pomeranian) got to go in too so that was fun!!

After all that fun...back in the car towards home...took a pit stop in Wilsonville to see the soon to be new Ferrari building...Kinda near the Mercedes dealer there in Wilsonville...I think once they get it all fixed and nice...it will be a great place to have their head quarters!! We then decided to time the drive...and given there was not much traffic today...it wasn't too bad actually! We'll see how that works out...in the Months to come. 

Made a quick stop at the Damascus Safeway for Milk...and a killer deal on Pepsi for Cameron...and a cookie for Kendy! lol...then headed on home...The wind was whipping through we could hardly believe it...one of our neighbors up the way had a branch fall on their home and the fire truck was there...they were patching things up as we drove by...

Got home...unloaded, opened the rest of our Christmas gifts from the MIL and Grandma...and snuggled in for the night...

All in all it was a fun...exciting day! Can't wait to get started on my To-Do list for Tuesday!!

xo See you tomorrow!!

~Happy New Year 2012~

YA for a new year...new goals....new fun...and new memories made!!

Its been  a nice start to the year...Hubba and I stayed up until 2am ringing in the New Year...fireworks, smooches, and dancing to Dick Clarks Rockin' Eve! WOOT! I had a sparkling wine mixed with 7up...I'm not much of a drinker so that did me just fine...

Goals are set in place for 2012...I love Jack Canfield so I use his success principles to determine my 3 main goals in 7 different areas of my life...I really took a long hard look at my goals this year...and really narrowed them down...to specific, measurable goals with a time line...I even broke them down into monthly goals...which I know will change monthly depending on 'things' but January is set...and then I already have my Daily to-do's for Mon/Tue...

On that note I will let you go...until tomorrow...

My 2 youngest kiddos have been with G'ma for a few days...so I'm missing them...and will be SO happy to pick them up in the morning!!
