A New Car and My Birthday

We have been in the market for a new car for about a year now. We had settled on a Grand Highlander, but the Toyota dealership that we were working with didn't really care to have our business. We had given then the specs for the car we wanted and put some money down to have them reserve the first one that they could find available. And then we waited and waited and waited....for 6 months. We finally decided to get our money back and pick a new car. The one we decided on for our second choice was the Hyundai Palisade. We had originally planned on getting a hybrid, but while talking with the sales guy, we realized that we would have to own the car for over 10 years to make up the difference in the price from a gas car. And there were a lot more options for gas, as well. The one that we deciddd on was a green one with a light interior. 

We loved the car, at first, but have been frustrated with a couple of things (a dead battery and a warning light that keeps going on, even though we have taken it into the service department to have them fix it).

For my birthday, Danny took the day off and the boys were off of school. Ashley had a special event at school that day, so she couldn't miss, but it meant that I didn't have to go into work either. The boys did a good job planning a whole day of fun for us. We started at Top Golf. The boys had never been there before and they thought it was a lot of fun.

I didn't get pictures of any of the other stuff, but after TopGolf, we ate lunch at home and then went and played pickleball together. The boys had never really played before, so it was a little slower paced than usual for Danny and I. After pickleball, we played some games at home. Camden had to go to a play rehearsal that afternoon and the boys both had their Ninja Warrior class. But then we went to Tucanos for dinner together (this was my request). We had my birthday treat the night before since I knew that we would all be stuffed after dinner, which we were. It was a fun day.
