Car Photos with Paige...


she finally has her new car, at the ripe old age of 16.5 I think she really NEVER thought we would get around to buying one...But being the very smart, safety expert her poppy is- he wanted the prefect car to get her through high school and college...as safely as possible. She loves it, hated the two weeks of rain we have had, and even threw a fit when she saw the prices at AutoBell for a full service wash...ahhh the pleasantries of being mom- I got to watch her squirm...and vow the sweep out her own interior at home...I am trying to reformat the video...my brother Corey said tis like watching one of those B rated slasher movies, when you hear the creaking of the garage door as it slowly opens to reveal Paige's shock and tears at seeing her new car. Either way, hugs from the south - blessings and blooms to y'all have a great Easter.

SPRING HAS SPRUNG IN THE CAROLINAS!


I was beginning to think we moved to Seattle with all the rain we have been having, but warmer days and sunshine has broken through! We have been busy as always, squeezing as much living into life as we possibly can that we have forgotten to log on, check in , and update as much as possible. You'd think we all the weekend warrior activities dampened by the torrential rain, we would have been online with more to share. But - there are too many avenues and too many facebook/email/dvr/dishes in the sink distractions to keep up with it all, let alone keeping up with the Holmans....I have been quickly settling into my new routine of trying to keep my car lighter, saving on gas - being greener when able, and following tons of blogs, and articles on saving saving saving...for what if any financial future we (or the country) may have. Hope this blog finds you well...adventures and pictures to be posted soon!
