Look Out!!

Yup, this is what I am drivin around these days. A 2008 fully loaded Suburban with a sun roof, navigation system, automatic start-up and even On Star. Which is only a couple steps up from my 1994 2 door honda civic...minus the bra lol. Anyways, the "Suburbia" as Chris and the guys call it, is huge! When my dad first told me to drive it I was like "there is absolutely no way I will be able to drive that thing!" I was afraid I would hit someone taking a sharp turn or something, my depth perception is not really what you would call "good" you can ask Chris on that one lol. I mean the thing is a bus! But my dad reassured me that I would be fine. The first time I drove it on a main street my dad made me drive with Chris in the passenger seat (not a good idea) and my dad in the back. I didn't know where I was going, my dad was on the phone with somebody, telling me "left! left! right! right! straight, turn! turn!" Chris was trying to be helpful, but not. He was saying "watch my side! you're too close over here! pay attention!" I felt like I was in a war zone and I was driving the death machine. It was awful. I mean I am not saying that I was driving well, but all the crazy directions and dictating didn't help either. The more I drive it though the more comfortable and confident I am with driving around a bus lol. The A.C. is amazing, got to love the back up camera, oh and it even believes in short ppl. I have never tried it cuz I just move the seat all the way up, but the pedals actually come forward! Pretty cool I thought. It's kind of a climb for me to get in and out of and you will still find my leopard pillow on the driver's seat, but hey at least I will never get lost in it lol. So if you happen to be driving around Chino CA and you can barely see a driver in a car that looks like this just a warning... LOOK OUT!!

First Day of School

Today was Chris' first day as a college student. He had the previlage to be woken up by his 5:15am alarm, and get ready for SCHOOL! His classes start at 6:00am so he has to be up bright and early. If you have ever had to wake up Chris or be around him as soon as he wakes up, you understand why this is such a big deal lol. Let's just say Chris is not a morning person. But I was proud of him this morning when that alarm went off and I didn't have to say a word to him to get up. He got up and got ready, and was on his way. I didn't take any pictures of him in his UTI shirt because I wasn't about to get up at 5:15am to take a picture. Sorry, but I need my beauty rest! lol I am a VERY light sleeper, so I am awake when Chris is awake, but I will admit that I was trying to go back to sleep. Since I haven't had to get up early in a long time, my body is used to going to bed late and then sleeping in, so I was not up to par on my getting up early ability. Anyways, Chris had a good first day, he already met some pretty cool guys and even got their digits lol, but that's Chris. Got to love him. The first couple of days are like orientation I guess, so it's nothing crazy yet. He did get his HUGE book and a binder but that's about it. I hope we can keep Chris getting up on his own but we will see. We love and miss you guys!!
