Happiness

Horray!!!! I finally made it to OREGON!!!! NO MORE CAR RIDES!!! LMBO :) We made it to Florence, Oregon at 11pm on Thursday night (EST). I was so glad to be there, and to see my family again :)

This country is so beautiful, and I'm glad (not SO glad, but glad - LOL!) that I got to see so much of it. Beautiful! The mountains at the Western edge of Wyoming are amazing. And the Columbia Gorge was awesome. Gotta love the USA :)

I missed you guys while I was away :) We're getting settled into my parents house, and trying to get all of our stuff to fit. I have over 100 personal e-mails from you all that I need to get to, but it's gonna take a while. Just try and be patient with me :) I'm gonna eventually get caught back up again :)

Either Western Nebraska, or somewhere in Wyoming

Lincoln Memorial (my 10 year old said it couldn't be the Lincoln Memorial, because that's in Washington DC. hehehe) in Wyoming

Maybe Wyoming? hehehe.

Columbia River Gorge (Oregon on this side of river, Washington on the opposite side)

The boys, eating crab with Uncle Joe (my sisters hubby)

And now, back to WordArt :) This request is from Trina. I like WordArt that can be used as titles, and this one sure can. Enjoy!!!

Really Cute

Ha! This one is a bit different, but I guess it's better than nothing. AND I really hate to give out nothing - LOL! So, here's my 'something' that's better than nothing! heheheh. I just LOVE Finding Nemo, don't you? I thought this would be cute on Baby or Pet pages.

A Dream

Yes, it's WordArt Wednesday, and no, I'm not all the way ready. So, instead of just skipping a week, I thought that I'd give you guys a chance to get it here! Ha! Well, i guess it's not unlike every other day of the week around here - LOL!

I thought this was a very nice quote, and from a girl movie. We don't have a lot of girl movies going around our house. What with 4 boys, and myself being such a big Sci-Fi geek, well, my poor 6 year old daughter doesn't stand a chance. So, Eme, this one's for you!!!

Road Trip Update

us at Wendy's in ... um.... somewhere - LMBO!!!

In the pool

in the hotel

OK, so it's not WordArt related, but I just had to check in and tell you all about my progress. We're almost to Iowa City, Iowa!!! It's 2:43 pacific time, and we're at McDonalds. Kids are eating happy meals, and playing with their toys. I'm on their Wi-Fi, and drinking my water, and my mom is loving it all! We're having a lot of fun, but it's a crazy time driving so much!!!

We stopped at Urbana/Champaign last night to sleep, and the kids got a few mintues in the pool, and LOVED IT!!! it was a bit chilly in the outdoor pool, but it sure felt good after all the heat. Grandma even came part-way in the pool - heheheh (she's a non swimmer - LOL!)

We're hoping to get across Nebraska today, but we'll see how it goes. Driving with no A/C with a truck full of kids is always ...... fun!!! Hehehehe. I do have a quick story. About an hour ago, a trucker flagged us down, telling us to pull over. But then they sped past, and we didn't know why. We pulled off, and checked the load, and it was all the same as it had been. Then unnurved us a bit. But, as we stopped at McDonalds, I noticed that one of the cargo net straps (that had broken back in Ohio) was hanging, and I BET that was what that trucker had seen. Phew! That sure scared us :)

Faith and Trust

What a nice quote. I didn't even realize it was from Peter Pan. Huh! Gotta love Disney :) hehhehe.

Bear Necessities

WE'RE FINALLY ON OUR TRIP!!! We left home today at about 6:00 pm, and headed up to Columbus! We're staying at the Holiday Inn by the airport, and seeing my hubby off to the military tomorrow morning. The truck is all packed, and our rental is all clean. Holy cow, it was a LONG day!

We went to Serpent Mounds today (click here to see a few pics of us at the mounds), and it was SO COOL! My hubby has had it on his "to see" list since he was 12! It was quite impressive :) Then, after cleaning and packing, and finally making it to the hotel, the kids got 15 minutes in the pool before it closed at 10:00 pm. It's now almost midnight, and I just wanted to post a quick picture of our rig before I go to bed. You'll like it, I'm sure!!! Just be glad you're not me - LMBO!!! Look how high our trailer is loaded! We shrink wrapped the load into the trailer, then used some kind of a tie down, then more shrink wrap, then a tarp, then more shrink wrap, then a cargo net, and a few bungies. It's not going ANYWHERE! It's rock solid :) Hehehehe.




I thought that this would be PERFECT for all those naked baby/kid pictures that we all have! I have a 2 year old that WON"T STAY DRESSED for nuthin! Can't keep clothes on that kid. But, he's totally potty trained if he's buck naked. Put pants or a diaper or even on a shirt on the kid, and he has an accident every time. Goodness. The joys of motherhood!

To Infinity

Well, here it is, Friday night, and I'm feeling guilty for not having WordArt for you all for my whole trip. I know, I'm a bit obsessed, but there it is - LOL! So, I stayed up WAY TOO LATE working on it, but it's done. WordArt through next Friday. I decided to go with Disney movie quotes this time. Thought they may be fun to use.

I know this one will have pleanty of use at our house! My kids love to strike a pose to this. Pointing one hand into the air. Silly kids. We REALLY need to get this on DVD. I LOVE this movie :) ha! (Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, for those of you missing out - LOl!)
