Seattle or Bust!!!

Deb & I headed out on a much needed road trip.. I picked her up about 7:30 or so & we were off.

We stopped in Cle Elum about 9:30. Deb remembered there was a scrapbook store that she always wanted to go to but it was always closed. We had 30 mins before it opened, so went & grabbed her some hot water so she could eat her oatmeal & then we'd head back to the store.
The store is call Rubys. It was well worth the wait. I loved the selection of pattern papers, brads, flowers, you name it she has it. Well $20 ish dollars later and Ruby's agreement that we could do
a crop sometime, some cards to hand out at the retreats. We were off..

We headed straight for the Pier. It was getting close to lunch and we figured traffic would be terrible. Well, we were wrong, hardly any traffic. We ended up parking close to the Crab Pot and that's where we decided to have lunch.
We were both struggling eating this little thing. I love shrimp & so does Deb but those eyes were killing us both. I really had a tough time when I saw another lady bite off the head & spit out the parts she didn't want ....EWWWWW!!!! *lol*

Deb totally stuffed!!!!


After this amazing lunch we headed for Pikes Market. I had never been & was so excited...


Famous Gum Wall - EWWWWW

The famous fish throwers!!


The beautiful flowers......Love the colors.. very cool......I loved all the musicians on the corner.. could have listened to them all day...

What a great day, with a great friend.....

Wow... What a day.....

My life has seemed like a roller coaster this past few weeks...

Wedding plans - no wedding plans

Adrian has been a total handful - we butt heads on a daily basis and it's not good

Work has been crazy - regulatory inpsection time

Jenn having a baby....

And to think when Kevin told me that Amanda found out she was pregnant a week after they called off their wedding .... I didn't go off the deep end...

Well I did for a few - just because people on Facebook new it before Kevin's family but that's a whole nother story...

So yes.. It's been a crazy, a roller coaster. I've sat and wander why.. I've asked God how big he thinks my plate is. I wandered what they were thinking & then I got a grip.. It will all work out.. One day at a time.. one step at a time....

Labor Day Weekend....

I got up Saturday & decided I wanted to go on a road trip. The boys really enjoy skateboarding, so I jumped on line and found different skate parks in the area. We packed a cooler, picked up Jenn and we were off.. The first stop was Walmart. I had to get them knee pads and elbow pads because we were moving up . These skate parks were all concrete they even had the big bowl.
Ephrata was the first stop - We skateboarded, flew our kites & had lunch...





We then packed up and headed towards Wenatchee... The kids were excited as the next park was a concrete skate park with a bowl.




Jenn was all about the food *lol*

We loaded up again & headed to Leavenworth. The boys had never been there. We were all excited.

We got to the park it was a huge bowl with a skate deck around it. The only problem was there were bigger guys on bikes there. The boys had to stay around the deck until some bigger boys with boards showed up the bikes took a break. The boys were able to go into the bowl and skate. They had alot of fun...





We skated about 45 mins or so then headed into town. We hit Jenn & I's favorite shops. The hat shop is always fun. Elijah would not let us even put a hat on his head where Adrian had lots of fun & was throwing in the accent's to his voice to match the hat.

After we visited the hat shop & the toy shop we grabbed Elijah an icecream and headed for the beer garden *lol*. I love the beer garden on the corner that you can get a brat of many kinds. The boys were able to go in & both Jenn & I orderered brats. They were so good...

After we fed our faces we walked to show the boys the goats. The one came up to the fence . The boys were thinking it was pretty cool.

Well, it was a great day & we all really enjoyed it!!!

Only Adrian ......

If you follow me on facebook this will be a repeat but it's so funny I had to blog it...

I was talking on the phone & I kept hearing the linen closet door shutting.. It was making a bumping noise & getting very annoying. I go to open it up and inside is Adrian all scrunched up with his knees up to his chin, buried with sheets. When I asked him what he was doing he said he wanted to sleep in there cuz it was comfy *lol*

Oh my goodness, so why did I get him a bunk bed with a double on the bottom so he could stretch out...

Only Adrian!!!!
