Fun day driving!!!

We had a fun day today.
Louise wanted to go to my cousin's house - partly so we could drop in some photos and partly to show off the car!! We knew that Ann Marie would be happy about the buying of said car.
She was!!

The photos - well Ann Marie's hubbie hasn't been well recently. He's been in and out of hospital and i wanted to cheer the 2 of them up. We had a couple of good photos from Disney that i thought would cheer them up. One was of Peter and Paul with Cinderella - it's almopst as if they are telling Big Peter (ann Marie's hubbie) that they are bringing cinders home for him to cheer him up! We also had ones of Peter (my Peter) with the mice from Cinderella. My joke with Ann Marie was saying that the mice were to help her in the house so she didn't have to worry about tidying or cooking!

Mind you, i'm sure a big bag of food goodies would have had a similar effect and been scoffed!!!

When we left, we headed of to school to pick Paul up. Now, this is not and will not be a regular thing. He knows that, but today was different. Paul had an audition and interview for the college course he has applied for.
Mind you - i thought Paul would have been waiting at the gate!!
No - so we went haringup to the roundabout, round that, back down to the school carpark and in. Louise jumped out of the car muttering "if he's gone for the train i'll kill him!!!"
At that, Paul appeared..

We headed back home. Lou asked if he wanted a lift to the station in town.
Mmmmm - ok, if you want!

So after food and a quick change of clothes, picking up the music, the clarinet and the map to get to said college, we set off.
Louise decided to put on some music in the car. Now any one who knows me, knows my singing is rubbish.
THe only thing that is worse is my dancing.
I don't havae 2 left feet.
I have a whole left body.
It's so left, that it's outta the country and falling off the planet!!!

Do you get where this is going.....................????

Yes, i decided to do the sitting down, arms in the air dancing that only a mad parent can do.

Louise was trying hard not to laugh, saying it was just as well that no police were about. I was meant to be the grown up responsible adult in charge of the car while she was driving.!!!!!

In fact, she threatened to get me one of these boogie boards that you get for toddlers - the thing that you attatch to the buggy and the todler can stand on it and not have to walk.

You can just imagine what i'd be like with that!! I'd still be dancing!!

Meanwhile, Paul is muttering in the back that he should really just have got the bus into town and then got the train.

Ahhh - but method in the madness - at least we knew he was relaxing and almost taking his mind off things!!

Mind you, Louise still finds streets that i didn't know existed!!!!

Our driving adventures had to come to an end - Lou had to get to work and Peter was getting to be a bit of a back seat driver!!!!!!

Paul got to the college, the audition and interview went well - and he was offered a place there and then!!!

So he's got the place and he's happy!!!!

Lou has just come in from work.
She told me the biggest child in the car today was the person who was the oldest!!!

She can't possibly mean me.................................. Can she?!?!?!?!
