Don't Mind Me....I'm Just Having A Moment

Here I am 12 years ago about to head off to college. My parents bought me this car because it was safe, dependable, and with the hope that it should last so I wouldn't have to worry about a car payment after graduation. Little did I know, we were in for a grand adventure! 

My parents planned well because until this week, it was able to take me all around Texas, drive across country, and even live in DC for a short while. Along the way, it toted many friends and family members who shared many incredible experiences and created amazing memories with me. So it's with a little sadness that I say good to my trusty pal.

Ever since we met, my husband and I have been planning for our adventure together. As we approached the purchase of a new car, we knew that it would have to be up to the task of safely toting a family around. And just like that, we're here and beginning a new phase of our adventure together!

                                Alas, Time stays, we go."

Here's a peek at the new ride, we pick it up tomorrow! 

 

My Favorite French Reporter/Adventurer

Oh the adventures of Tintin! What a fun little comic book with some of the greatest drawings ever! I just love the colors and the clothing!

These fabulous comics were written and drawn by Georges Prosper Remi better known as Hergi. He created a resilient little hero who experienced fantastic adventures throughout the world. Tintin was always accompanied by his little dog Snowy. Together they took both children and adults on adventures throughout Africa, the Soviet Union, the Moon, Tibet and many other exciting places.
