So I finally got to see John today.  He needed a lift to get a few things that were a little farther out than the inner city stores so Tom and I drove in and ran him around for a little while.  I had previously picked out some clothes for him to come home in, but I apparently don't favor his taste. He said he needed a hat, but he didn't really like the one I picked out.

And as if one new vehicle isn't good enough, two is better!   Jake and Becky got themselves a vehicle that will go in the snow!   Holds three prospective car seats, so that is good!  

Jess was gone the better part of the weekend as friends had her stay-sit while they were on a short road trip. 
This household has them coming and going all to often lately!
