A New Set Of Wheels

That's right folks!
The girl who has always received hand-me-down vehicles ventured out with her wonderful hubby to do a little car shopping. We went into the whole experience thinking that I/we wanted one thing and wound up with something that wasn't specifically on our radar until I drove it.

Check out my new ride:
A 2007 Dodge Nitro R/T



Isn't it shiny and sassy?!?

Now I know it isn't "new" but it's newer than anything
else I've ever had and it's new to me.
I LOVE it!!
Which is good because we're tied to it for many years now.

I'd Say Stuck-He'd Say Comfy

I realize that it has been close to two weeks since I've posted anything. I had more pictures and the conclusion to trip home (which most of you know what not a good one) but have decided against posting all the gory details simply because it's been so long,
it's not a happy story and I'm tired.

On to something more current:



You'd think we don't any chairs in the house for the poor child to sit on. Well...after he took a seat and found himself stuck he decided to change his circumstances by announcing that he was "comfy."

A Tight Fit

Camden managed to climb into and lie down in Madison's baby doll bed. I suppose he wanted to snuggle down with
a good book in a cozy little spot.







Madison had to get in on the action too so she climbed in herself. I'm still not quite sure how they both climbed into that
tiny plastic framed bed without breaking it.

Aren't they cute when they're clean?

A Road Trip and Camden's Birthday Party

Brian, Camden and I loaded up the trusty ol' Yukon and began the typically 11 hour trip to Levelland to visit my parents and celebrate Camden's birthday. A few hours into the trip we received several phone calls telling us that we shouldn't come because of the snow and icy conditions that were forming there. After discussing our options we decided to brave the weather and press on. Our planned 11 hour trip quickly turned into a 14 hour trip when the "trusty" ol' Yukon had a hose disconnect from the transmission which left us stranded on the side of the road awaiting a tow into Post where Brian was thankfully able to fix the problem (which came back to haunt us) with my Dad's over the phone help.

Anyway...

We had Camden's second birthday party on Saturday afternoon. We were so thankful that so many of our friends and family braved the cold weather and muddy road out to my parent's house to help us celebrate. Camden had a Yo Gabba Gabba party complete with a custom cake made by my BFF Zak and oodles of decorations and balloons. Camden had a blast!!
