going on a roadtrip

A friend of mine is getting married tomorrow, so Marisha and I are driving to Portland. Rachel already flew out there (she's in the wedding)and the three of us are driving back after the wedding. Driving into the wee hours of the morning...just my kind of thing!
Joel is in Moscow this weekend...hanging with his guy friends.
Although the drive will be long, I am beyond excited to get to spend some "girl" time or "me' time or whatever. My responsibilities will be gone for the day. No disciplining, no planning for the next meal or snack, no toys to pick up.
But I'm going to miss it. Even being gone 8 hours at work is sad.


Oh yeah, Olivia is spending the day with Grammy and Papa.

Speaking of Olivia....seriously...smartest baby ever. There are just so many things that amaze me everyday.
Whenever she gets keys...she goes to a door and tries to put them in the keyholes.
If she gets a hold of a paper towel or something similar...she goes to the nearest table and starts wiping it off.
When you ask her how she is...she says "Good!"
When you ask her what color her eyes are...she says "Bluuu"
I was at a garage sale the other day and a lady accidentally kicked a few rock onto the sidewalk...so Olivia walked over and moved all of the rocks back over.
She not only imitates most everything...but she remembers and repeats them later at all the appropriate times! I wish I could remember them all!
