Michael took the girls to Portland a couple weekends ago to visit their brother, Jake. While they were there they were able to catch a Beavers game. All 3 Colligan kids as well as their cousin Ava made it through the whole game! I honestly was a little afraid for what Mike might be in for, but all turned out well. Mike is the picture freak I am so here are a few of their first and last I might add trip without Mommy!

"All By Myself"

Remember that depressing song? I now have it playing continually in my head! Why, you ask? Well, Mike took both girls to Oregon to visit Jake and family as well as take in an OSU game. I was suppose to be working so I stayed home and of course the night before they leave I find out that I won't be working after all. So, I cried my eyes out because I'm like that! (thanks mom...and dad really) For me being without my girls is like not breathing. And I know many people who will say this is unhealthy, but I chose to be a parent and I like having my kids around all the time! Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy an hour or two of peace and a night out with the girls, but for them to both be gone and my husband for 5 days....WAY TOO MUCH! Those who know me and those who don't, well I am a little co-dependent. Another pathetic trait I am not proud of. But, I again enjoy my husband and family. To some it is pathetic, to me it is my life. I am a strong person and I do have hobbies and enjoy my time, but I enjoy my loves much more. So, poor Seanna! :):):) So, what do you do when you are all alone? Sleep in, stay up late(really because I couldn't sleep)not by choice. Got a manicure and pedicure(thank you honey) Bible study( awesome time of fellowship), yard work (not so much fun) decorated the house for Fall and Halloween(love the fall) And last but not least, I am going to the movies..you guessed it, alone! Actually, that is by my choice that I am going alone to the movies, I am actually looking forward to extra butter on my popcorn and a large cherry coke! So, yes, I miss my babies, but I am making the most of it and can't wait until they all get home Monday! I will post a "positive" blog about their trip when they get home!

..."don't want to be all by myself, anymore" lol
