Past Week

Thought I'd update our past week. We've been SO busy getting ready to move. The packers/movers come tomorrow morning to take everything away and we leave on Thursday morning! So this past week I took the kids to Kings Island one last time to ride all the rides. We were so excited to see Scooby-Doo taking pictures outside of the haunted Scooby ride. For those of you who know Cameron well, you know that this is his all time favorite character. In fact he has requested a Scooby Doo party for his birthday this year. Well, everything was great until it was our turn for a picture and Cameron wouldn't go near him! He started crying and clinging to my shirt. Needless to say, the photo is only of Scooby and Anna.
This is one of the kids' favorites, the Dora Explorer/Swiper ride. It whips the kids around the corner really fast which is why they're all giggles!

Here's Cameron thinking he's all bad.....hands up!
On Saturday we went to Justin's dad's house one last time. We went swimming in their pool and had a yummy BBQ. David took the kids for a ride on the tractor and let them each drive. They live on 10 acres so we didn't need to worry about any crashes!
And here's Anna's turn to drive.
Cameron loved floating on his back in the pool. The pool was soooo nice and the water was the perfect temperature.

Visiting

My dad was in town last night on business, so we were able to go downtown and have dinner with him. The kids as always were excited to see Grandpa and told everyone they saw that day that Grandpa was coming. We had a great dinner at a new restraunt called Chalk. As you can see for dessert we had the cupcakes....yummy! Nice to see you dad!

Who's Worried about Gas Prices?!

So....we finally bought a new car! (well, we leased a new car) It all happened really fast. We listed my car on Craigslist and sold it within a week, which meant we had to find another car fast! We had been looking at SUV's for awhile now and had it down to two, the Buick Enclave and the Infiniti QX56. Justin told me to pick one and go get it. So on Thursday afternoon after a lot of deliberation I settled on the Infiniti and I love it! It has plenty of room and LOTS of cool "techie" stuff. The minus was the gas mileage of course, but the car was perfect otherwise. Lucky me that they had a car with my interior and exterior color choices! So on Saturday morning we went and picked it up! It'll take me awhile to figure out how to work everything, but we'll get there. Yeah!


**Notice my park job, I'll learn to park it in the lines someday**
