Spring is on the way...FINALLY!

After a weekend of feeling bad we decided to get out for some fresh air. So we packed the red wagon in the car and headed to Latta Plantation...We made it almost to the water (proof below) and then had a total toddler meltdown....so we high tailed it back to the car to head home...


In all fairness we have all been feeling under the weather and Alex's nap today was about 1 hour instead of 2-2.5...so we should have known better but with it being so nice out we just HAD to get out of the house.








We are looking for some good beginner bike trails in the area - so if you know of any let us know. We didnt take the bikes today (and Im glad because come to find out these are horse/hiking trails only) because I wasnt sure I could hack it post cold/flu.


Other news that has consumed us the past 2 weeks -- we are car shopping for Scotty. Well...truck shopping. We had it narrowed down to 2 - we had one Dodge Ram shipped in from Ga, only to decide the back seat was too small. Then we found one at a local Ford place and they promised us they could get it in our budget - only to find out they wouldnt drop the price a single dime. They let us walk basically over really small change compared to the price of the truck. So, this brings us to truck #3 -- its being shipped in from Raleigh and hopefully we can go see it tomorrow. If the test drive goes well we are going to just sign on the dotted line. This is not the actual picture - they have removed it from the website since we basically have it on hold but this is what it looks like...




So thats it -- in a nutshell.
