It arrived while it was our turn to have the babysitting group on a Friday night. So we walked over with all of the kids to watch it be lowered off the big rig. The kids were impressed with how the truck worked- the lever to lower the car, the guy climbing the ladder to the top and then driving it down. They also thought it was great that they got to ride in the car- the whole 10 houses back to our driveway. The driver had encountered a huge rainstorm in TX so the Jeep was covered with sticky oil, so a car wash was the perfect ending to our evening and a great way to entertain the kids for the last hour. :)

A new car
Well, I mentioned that we sold the Camry and now we've purchased a new car! About a week and a half ago, our Jeep Cherokee arrived on a truck- we bought it from Bill's parents who live in Texas. It's so exciting and the timing of the sell was impeccible! We looked at mini-vans, but secretly I'm glad this worked out b/c I can get my SUV fix in before I start driving a mom-mobile... which I will gladly do when the time comes!
