Last night we went to the annual new car show at the stampede grounds. We went with Marns & Lester. Sean & Marns wanted to check out the new Jeep (to see how different it is from our '06 Jeep), I wanted to check out the mini's, & Lester was on the prowl for a new vehicle...
This concept truck was GYNORMOUS! I think our entire tent trailer would fit inside the cab of the truck:
So much for fuel efficient vehicles, huh?
Lester fell in love with the high-end mini Cooper S convertible, whereas I made up my mind to purchase a mini-cooper (just a plain ol' mini cooper) in the fall . . . Sean, I could tell, was relieved that I decided on a mini over a Toyota Yaris!
After the new car show, we went out for Italian food to celebrate Marns' bday. The girls are continuing the celebration this weekend, with a group outing to Canmore and an overnight stay at a posh condo that is owned by Lester's sister-in-law's family. It is too bad that I am unable to join everyone for the remainder of the festivities - for tonight we are celebrating Meghann's bday.
Here are a few pics from last Friday of Josh trying out one of our new chairs:
It is too bad we received the wrong table top (we wanted birch, but we got OAK - and we do not like oak at all), and one of the chairs was damaged . . . but we LOVE the chairs, as does Josh... Once we get the new table top and replace the one chair, it will all be PERFECT!
Ok, Sean & I have a few errands to run, prior to his flight tonight to Salmon Arm, so I had best get ready . . .
Toodles,

we like our '99 Jeep. It's paid off. It sits most of the time as my husband has a "company car" and I drive a more fuel efficient saab.
Plus the stereo and sun roof are a nice bonus!
Nice new furniture.
