Passed out after a long day

Well, we've made progress on the planning of our trip to Pismo Beach. I've got the hotel booked which is a new hotel right down the street from my Mema's. Ella will have a blast playing in the pool. We're planning on stopping at the Monterey Bay Aquarium on the way down. I think Ella will really enjoy that.

Charley and I made a huge accomplishment this month. We finally paid off all our credit card debt. It has been a long seven months, but we paid off every penny! Feels great to have that weight lifted. Now we know just how much money we should be able to put away in savings. And now we need to start saving for our trip!

I'm working Wednesday-Saturday night and all day Sunday this week. Hopefully we can make it to the river on Friday before I have to be at work.

Been a Couple Weeks...

Not too many new things have been happening on our end lately. Charley and I had another Friday off together, so we took Ella to the river again. She was talking about it all week until we finally got to go. She had a lot of fun playing in the water and in the sand. We dropped her off at Grandma and Grandpa's that night and went out to eat at my favorite sushi place. We were celebrating our six year anniversary which was yesterday. I really can't believe how long it's been already. We sure have been through a lot looking back on those six years.

We decided we are going to take a family trip down to see my Mema at the end of August. I am excited to take Ella on her first big trip and to see my family. It will also be nice to spend some time as a family since that doesn't happen all that often!
