Beth, Shanna, Eleanor and I went for a hike today at Silver Falls. We did some hiking, had a picnic lunch and took some great photos. A good time was had by all. Once we were done at the falls we enjoyed yummy Starbucks and headed back to our house for a fun game on the Wii. What a great Sunday!

Fashion Help!

Okay, so I need some help! The dress above is in the color of "midnight" and I ordered it for Mike and Ali's upcoming Wedding. I need help deciding what color of shoes to wear with it.
Any advice?

A great time was had by all in Denver. We enjoyed great shopping at Cherry Creek Mall, the "Pek", our new friends from Coors Distributing in Wisconsin, and scoping out the City. Once again, I returned home from Denver and am ready to make the move! :0) We are already looking into places to rent for our trip in 2009! Thanks to all of our friends for making the trip memorable and unforgettable!

RV Show

Used Weekend Warrior that we both agree on!
This is my kind of motorcycle...with an extra wheel! wink, wink
Even a log cabin RV!
Yes, the motor home has a patio, but no dishwasher!
The new Inferno 5th Wheel Toy Haulers have a built in keg
and flat screen TV in the back. We know where the boys would be!

Jeff and I went looking a toy haulers in Auroa a few weeks back. After viewing used toy haulers we heard there was a RV Show at the Expo Center in Portland. We stopped for lunch in Clackamas, and then headed to the Expo Center. We had a great day and now know exactly what we want. It helped by walking thru various floor plans. Some of these toy haulers are more expensive than my first house! The bright side...we can write it off as a second mortgage :) Somehow that just makes me feel better!
