Addition to the Nelson Family!

First comes love... then comes marriage.... then comes the baby SUV in the garage!
Not quite how we used to sing it when I was younger but exciting nonetheless. This past weekend we made our first big purchase as co-owners of a Ford Escape. It's pretty! Taylor has known the Protege would not make it through another winter with us- pause for tears- so we did some research and decided the Escape was for us. After a grueling three and a half hours at the dealership we brought our baby home. Now begins the struggle of sharing!

I love it! I love the new car smell it has. I hope you put your foot down and demand to drive it on your next day off. Much better than a baby.
