DisneyLand or Las Vegas?

The always dreaded question, where would you like to go on vacation? no, where would you like to go on vacation..... and so on!





Las Vegas..

I have always wanted to go, always always...

But, then I started working at a Casino and realized how much a can't stant them, and now Cameron can't hardly stand them only because he has stood by the past 2 years I have been here listening to me complain and watching everything that has been going on.

So I have decied if we go to vegas, we're not in it for the gambling, there are PLENTY of things to do in Vegas.

We can go indoor sky diving, Watch Cirus De Ole, go to the Stratosphere, take a walk the strip... ect ect ect.... the list goes on and on.

With all the beautiful lights and wonderful shopping centers, good food and entertainment why wouldn't I just automaticly pick Vegas as the perfect birthday destination?




Becasue I have a second option...... :)





DISNEYLAND................


I am a Huge HUGE roller coaster fan. If we went to Cali, there are many, many theme parks we can visit.


Knotts Berryfarms... Six Flags Magic Mountain.... Six Flags Hurrican Harbor.. Sea World.. Disneyland. All the rides, all the ROLLERCOASTERS... Aaahhh! I want that too. I want it all :)


But, I do need to be practical and both would just be way to much money for us right now. So, back to the reason I'm writting. I'm stuck in a the vacation blender of decided which place and what fun things to dooo..


The reason we're even going on a vacation is well, for my birthday. But, also because we just need a break. It's been 4 years the furthest we're gotten away is to Port Townsend. The only real small vacation we took was to Seattle for 3 days. We just need some us time. No work, No dog, No cats, No room mate just Me and Cameron a hundred miles from here... Sounds like a good idea to me... :)


Now, back to my decision making.. :) ini mini miney moe

Blog # 2. Port Townsend

I'm soo soo upset, I lost my camera the MORNING of our trip! :(

I have never been to Port Townsend so I didn't know what to expect. It took us nearly 3 hours to get up there, thank goodness it was nice weather.
We got into town, and tried to find our hotel, we drove past it atleast 3 times before I looked up and saw it on a hill. Our room wasn't ready so Cameron really wanted to go Fort Worden an old army fort. So we get there and there are a ton of people, we walked all over this old fort and climbed through all these old rooms that were all dark and wet. Good thing I had a flash light in my car. :)
We went down to the water and it was so beautiful, the waves where calm and it was just really nice out.
We then started to explore these hills that have hidden bunkers all through them, we found a couple here and there and after walking like 7 miles we found some that no one was at but us.
There was this one where the only way in was to slide through this 2x2 square hole that was half way up the wall. Cameron went through first then I slid through.
If you ever saw ghost hunters on SCIFI you would understand what this hiddne room was like.
I'm completely sure that if there are ghost in this place, they would live in this bunker. It was soo dark I couldn't see my hand in front of my face. Cameron went up this man hole and left me down on the ground with no light, it was amazinly scary.. :) But I'm into that kind of scary stuff. I LOVE exploring no matter where it is.
We finally got back to our hotel around 5ish, took a quick nap then got ready for dinner.
We had reservations at this really nice place. We got there 15min to 9. We didn't get seated until 10:00!! It was a 4 course meal, we had small appitizers, a salad, dinner and desert.
We didn't stay to share our desert we got it to go since it was going on 11:30ish by the time our dinner was all done.
All in all it was a really nice weekend. We came home and played with the new kitties, and just hung out with Samuel.

Now I'm back at work, wishing I was back in Port Townsend...
Here are a few pictures from the trip, I had to use my Camera Phone. Good thing the Voyager had a good camera..







Kittens...

Well friday even while I was packing and getting ready for Mine and Camerons Port Townsend Weekend. I hear a knock on the bathroom door. Cameron says in the cutest voice, uhh if you not busy, I think Taffy is having babies, all I can hear is screaming.. :)
So I opened the door and followed him to the living room, he had put taffy out in the sun-room, that's her's and oaks bedroom. Anyways, I opened the door and sure enough she had 3 little babies sitting in front of her. I got her box that we had ready for her, put some towels in it, and asked Cameron to help me move mommy and babies to the box, we moved her and put her in the kitchen.

Cameron and I left for our weekend, came home on sunday and this is what I found.. :)

5 little babies.
2 are tabby just like her.
2 are zebra striped gray and black with a little orange
1 is all grey with a white strip on it's tummy..
If you are interested in a kitty, it will be atleast 6 weeks before I can give them away, but it you are interested please let me know.. I can only keep one.

Valentines.....

So Cameron and I have never really done anything for valentines day before, besides the gift giving..
anyways, last night on our way to walmart Cameron surprised me with weekend getaway in Port Townsend.. :) I have never ever been before and I've always wanted to go up that way.
So I made our dinner reservations and hotel reservations.. I know, you thought when I said he surprised me with it that meant he did all the planning for it. No.. :)
I spent all morning calling every place in Port Townsend and I finally found a nice place that had a room open, then I snagged up the last dinner Reservation they had the fine dining place, Ts-Restaraunt. They are having a set 4 serving meal. appatizers, salsd or soup, dinner, and one desert to share.. :) I'm sooo sooo excited I bought the most gorgeous dress off of victoria's secret.. I love that store so much, its my favorite.... :) They keep upping my Cretit Mard, they must love me because I keep paying if off all the time..
I have to go buy Cameron some nice clothes for this weekend. The restaraunt has a dress code. :)
I can't wait to go up there and take beautiful water pictures from our room.. :)
Hopefully the weather is nice enough...
Anyways, I'll post another blog after this weekend.....

Beautiful hotel, wonderful food, gorgeous place, never know what might happen.. :)

While being bored...







This is just going to be a bunch of random thoughts.... :)







Tomorrow I have my appointment to get my taxes done at h&r block. I'm pretty excited to get them done, I'm hopping that since I can deduct school this year I will be getting a hefty chunk back. Cameron gets 1200. Lucky him!!







But then again he also made basicly double what I made, so he has the upper hand.







"fingers and toes crossed" I'm hoping he goes to take his test soon. He told me he would, he promised his parents so heres to hoping that, that little miracle goes through.







With him having been layed off for the last what 2 months almost and me having to pay all the bills things where getting a little tight for me.. The only thing that saved us was his unemployment checks he got each week and the fact that we had saved up for a little while, he did have a some notice he was going to be layed off for awhile! But, we are over that little hump now, he's back to work and hating that his vacation is over.. :) HA!







On to a differnt subject.







I have decided that I'm going back to having pink and blonde in my hair. I really miss it.. Or purple, I really liked the purple I had in my hair too.. :) Its such a hard choice to make. I like having just a single color hair but I get tired of it after awhile. I'm addicted to dying my hair, its my only addiction. Right now with my hair being black brown with 2 inches of chocolate brown grow out, I'm completely ready to change it up a bit..

I like these pictures of hair so far...
what do you think??





okay I'm going back to work now.. :)
