Hi girls!! I'm baaaack!

Hey girlfriends! Boy, I've missed chatting with ya! I was gone 3 days and it felt like a week! Its going to be a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time before we take another ROAD TRIP! I think had we stayed one night and did some sight seeing on Friday, then headed home... it would have gone much smoother. For the most part, it was nice to get away; the Toledo ZOO was AWESOME and I LOVED meeting my blogging friend Stacy and her 2 adorable boys!! That was the hi-lite of the trip!! Stacy and I "met" because we were assigned as swap partners a couple months ago; we hit it off right away! We had 2 boys both close in age and had so many things in common! It was SO FUN to hang out with them for a day!

I've got lots of pics to post and stories to tell over the next few days!
Tomorrow is Gavin's 8th Birthday party so I need to get some things ready for that and finished unpacking! But I wanted to Say HI! And show you the silly pic of me posing by a GIANT (pretend) Polar Bear! The darn thing looked and felt real! The best part... I felt SO TINY next to him! I wish I had him in my home for the days that I feel fat and bloated! LOL I'd sit by Mr. Polar Bear all day to "feel" small!!

I won't be posting for Scrapbook Sunday tomorrow, UNLESS I find some time in the evening! I'll be by soon to catch up on all of your posts!!

Hugs,
Noelle ♥

We had a blast too, so when you are ready for another road trip, we're game :)

Have fun today...and tell Gavin that Aiden says "happy birthday party, dude"

Welcome back:-) I'm just now getting into visiting my blogging buddies again, I just haven't had the chance since my return from my own trip! Glad to hear you had a fun time, I love visiting the zoo. Can't wait to see more pictures! Love that picture of you and the polar bear...they do say that when you want to feel small, to stand beside somebody much bigger than you! lol xoxo

Geez I finally manage to get a scrapbook sunday post up and you're too hectic☺ Oh well, I was just coming over to apologize for not having a linky to you and Holly in it. I wrote it middle of last week because this weekend was crazy busy. Was celebrating my mom's 60th today and on the other side of town all day. Had my SS post in the can and thought I'd added the links but then when I went on just now to check on it, sure enough I didn't. Oh well☺

Glad you had a great time at the Toldedo Zoo. Since it was a road trip is that far from you? It's only an hour away from us and we'd love to meet you and the boys there sometime too! But I'm thinking since you were road tripin' it's not close by. I think there is a zoo around where we talked about meeting up before. I'll check into it.
