Windshield in a Carwash

We had to give back the CX-5 today. We had a great time with this car. During the week we did a bunch of fun family adventures including our annual trip to La Salette, a giant toy donation and more. It was a great car for tooling all around the town and carrying a bunch of things. The folks at DriveShop were awesome. Clyde was the guy who delivered and picked the car back up. He was really nice. I would have gone and picked him up at the train station next time, too. However, he flew up, took a train down and then walked to the house. A fun job. I look forward to our next vehicle loan.

The rest of my day was spent working on Eva’s room, emptying out some boxes and organizing. I needed to be able to move around in my office or else I would have had her do this on her own. But then again, doing it myself allowed me to get rid of some real junk. I also got my car washed because it really, really needed it and I have to do it when I don’t have the kids so the back seat can be vacuumed. Hard to do with car seats. I hate putting them back in.

Santa and all the kids

Each year we try and go to brunch with Santa. We’ve been doing it for a number of years and it is very fun for the kids and for us.

She was much better when it was Shelby and Dylan on Santa’s lap. Continue reading Brunch with Santa at Angelina’s
