we are back to being a 1 car family since we moved south.
other then the first year of our marriage, we have only ever owned one car.
we were good at sharing during matt's school years, and i just learned to live without when we lived in california last time.
the past 2+ years we got to have a work truck for matt to drive, so we didn't need to buy our own.
unfortunately, we had to give that back when matt changed companies.
lame.
so the plan was to buy a new car before we left calgary.. and then right when we arrived.. and then like 4 different times since we got here.. but we've still got nothin'.
so when matt takes our car to work, the boys and i walk.
we walk to all sorts of stores, the library, parks.
today i just realized that i am in walking distance of a target! so we walked there. obviously.
i really love walking with my boys.
i love that we all get exercise, and that we are forced to chat, and that they have the time to check out the world around them.
and i have always made sure we have a wicked nice stroller to accommodate that love.
but it has been a little hotter then ideal for walking these past couple weeks for our canadian children!
hopefully next summer our boys will be a bit more used to the climate here.
the other day, while walking in the heat of the day, holden said, "i miss the snow in canada."
and i thought it was a pretty cute comment!
