A VERY busy day

Of course the dealership could not reproduce the issue with the van. But they figured out that it was probably the AC relay that drained the battery and the "smoke" was a release of freon from the AC system building up too much pressure. Luckily it was not too bad on the money side. It is funny how labor seems to cost ten times what the part costs. Oh well, it works now. The not so good side was that they kept it over night.

Luckily we were able to borrow a car yesterday morning and the CFO and I drove the Triplets to their day out program as three car seats do not fit in a normal back seat. My Mom then came over with her truck so I could take some yard debris to the dump. On the way to the dump we were waiting to turn at a light when... BAM! Yep, we got rear ended. Luckily no one was hurt and neither vehicle was damaged.

My Mom then dropped me by to pick up the van. When I got back home I got all the car seats and my stuff back in the van in time to pick the kids up from their day out program. We headed to pick up our weekly veggies from Grow Alabama. After getting them we met my Mom at Lowe's to get pine straw for the back yard. 20 bails later we headed back home, unloaded the truck, ate a snack and got ready for swim lessons.

At swim lessons all three waited till we were in the pool to decide they needed to go poopie. Did I mention that they decided one at a time! Lovely. But it is still better than them going in a swim diaper:)

After swim lessons we headed out for dinner and finally home to bed.

I am looking forward to a relaxing day home with the Triplets today:)
