Grande white chocolate mocha's.

So now that I have my caffeine fix for the day,
I just want to say that I am a very lucky girl!

Life has thrown me so many curveballs over the past few years that I wasn't sure I would be strong or wise enough to handle. I'm glad that the pinch of positivity I had in me prevailed over the negativeness I seemed to always carry around.

I can't even begin to jot down all of the reasons I have to be the happiest I have ever been. 2012 is already showing it's colors in my life & I couldn't be more thrilled.

Rob landed a job back in August which was the stepping stones to everything coming together the way it has. It's all sort of fallen in place since then. Granted, I've gone through a bit of a rollercoaster ride at home with the kids I've watched & am happy to report that I've found the "light at the end of the tunnel" & I don't need to worry day-to-day that things could change any minute. Feeling secure with my job/income has been a must have & I'm glad I have finally made it happen.

Rob and I were hoping to by now have either purchased a house or were at least renting one. We have 100% outgrown our apartment, & were really hoping for outdoor space of our own this year for Evan & company to be able to adventure out in. On the flip side, this gives us lots more time to save money for our down payment so it's hard to really complain.

Tonight is date night & thankyou resturant.com for the gift card we'll be using. I spent $2.00 for $25.00 worth of food & drinks!!!!! + + + Rob services the place we are going to & has an additional 15% off our order (that is if they will accept 2 coupons) Either way, You can't beat that! :)

Closing thoughts:::::

I promise to be back within the week for a few more picture posts. I have lots to share. I also want to thank 2 people,
1.) To the woman in front of me at the starbucks drivethru with lots of Ron Paul bumper stickers all over your car, Thank you ever so much for buying my coffee that day. I'm holding out for the opportunity to get you back.
2.) & To Shannon Davis who surprised me at my apartment about an hour ago with the same wonderful starbucks coffee drink, You guys are the absolute best.
