cars........

Yesterday on my way to the water park with the kids and one of my sisters the car decided to break down it was a horrible noise!! Luckily my mother and sister in-law were close by to come and pick us up but there wasn't enough room. So it was also nice that my mom's work was just down the street and i could barrow her car to take the kids to her house till Patrick got off work. Unfortunately it was bad enough that not even Patrick could fix it. So we had to have it towed (thank goodness our insurance covers that). The thing that stinks is that we have had the car paid off and are planning to sell it so we can upgrade to a bigger vehicle (have you ever tried to put 3 full sized car seats in the back of a car, it doesn't work too well). But we also need to get Patrick a newer comuter car...... one that's A/C actually works and the windows can roll down! I swear we have put more money into our "nicer" car than our banged up 17yr. old car.
