It was nice. So nice. There was a birthday party in Roseburg today that we were all invited to. I originally thought I had to work and assumed Adam and I wouldn't be attending. When I found out that I had the day off, we opted to stay home and let the kids go with mom and dad. BOY am I glad that we did! We still had Joel, but when you have as many kids as we do, a one-kid-tag-along feels pretty close to a date. I planned a surprise "day-date" for us. A drive to a waterfall was the plan. A hike up the waterfall with some pictures along the way was the plan...
But it didn't go that way. We just drove. I packed strawberries, left-over pizza, and generic diet pepsi...(romantic I know,) and we drove for 2 1/2 hours. Up Highway 62 to Prospect, stopped at Lost Creek Lake, visited the marina, took a few bolus breaks, checked out the yurts and cabins at Willow Lake,...yada yada,...and eventually made our way home. IT WAS FABULOUS. Unfortunately I was having such a fabulous time that I forgot to even take my camera out. I can't remember the last time I had 3 hours of straight company with my husband without being interrupted by a child, a tv show, a phone call....my parents...you name it. It was absolutely what the doctor ordered. Thank you mom and dad for taking them! I love you long time!
