On our way back from our mini vacation that we recently took... we broke down on the side of the highway. Not fun. We turned it into an adventure while we waited for rescue and a tow truck... I make it sound so dramatic don't I? ha ha! In actuality, we were only about 20 minutes from home... and our rescuer was about as close. It could have been sooo much worse!
I had my Xterra in for service a few months ago, and they messed up pretty bad. They didn't put the plug in properly (rear end) and on the way home (without us knowing), it blew oil.. till there was no oil left... then it seized up, and we lurched to a dead stop. Ugh! Thankfully... Nissan fixed it on their bill. So, nooo.. this didn't really mean we were out a vehicle and had to go get a new one. We have been looking around since last summer.. trying to decide what to get next. I always had a soft spot for the Murano. I contemplated a few other choices, the Murano won. It is smaller compared to what the other choices were, but for normal day to day family hauling and grocery getting.. it is practical... and fun to drive! hee! Once we have bad luck with a vehicle... it always seems to go down hill for us.. we can't escape it! Seriously! ..so superstitious us thought now was just as good a time as any! ;)
Meet the batmobile (09 Nissan Murano LE)... yes that is what I like to think of it as.. the batmobile! ha!
No.. it can't launch rockets... or change forms (ha!)... but this gadget loving girl is most definitely impressed! Seriously, it kind of scares me. My Xterra had like nooooo features or gadgets (we bought it the same model year that they decided the Xterra didn't need anything.. no matter how 'loaded' you purchased it)... nothing to mess up! lol I have some pretty heavy manual reading ahead of me!
We ended up getting the navigation with it.. not that we need it up here, although I am quite impressed that even the grid road that we live on is there, and labeled properly! Impressive! I suppose I might get lost out in the boonies and need it to find my way home! ha ha! Just kidding. They only had 2 or 3 on the lot... so, navigation it was. Oh well.. like I said, I like gadgets! :)

The other day, Laine comes out of the playroom... carrying the scooter up at her head level. Odd I thought.

And I was getting so much better at keeping up with blogging! ha ha! It is spring/Easter break for Miss Laine right now... so we have been taking it pretty easy. Jammies every day for like the past ohhhh, 3 days? hee heee! See, there really is no excuse for not blogging now is there? Ohh, but ya know what? I have read almost three books in just as many days... amazing! I do have time to read after all.. if I stay away from the internet that is! lol

We had a party for him on Sunday! We had his favourite meal... chicken and fries (seriously the only thing the little fart will eat a complete meal of! lol). We had a car cake. We had balloons (this boy looooves balloons!)... and we had a lot fun!

Just what every playroom needs, don't ya think? Although, I am sure Harley will highly disagree with the pom poms in a year or two! hee heee! For now though, they are kinda cool. I bought another tissue paper pom pom kit for my scraproom (we already have a pink set hanging in Laine's room, they are both from Martha Stewart Crafts)... I wanted the aqua/turquoise ones in here.. yes, really feeling the need to make things feel more like 'spring' around here.. and it worked!! There were 3 leftover light blue ones... so I hung them in the playroom, along with the fabric banner that I finally made.
