We bought a new car yesterday. We sold our blue Subaru a few weeks ago because we wanted to get a manual transmission car for Bekah to drive. Stick has been on the hunt and saw this car in Greensboro, two hours away. The lady selling it seemed pretty desperate and gave us a great deal, so we bought it and brought it home. It's a 2021, making it the newest car we own. Despite it's youth, it's pretty bare bones inside. It has manual locks, and windows and it's teeny, but it will be great for Bekah, as soon as she learns how to drive it!

Our first flowering tree has just started to bloom.

I spent the day off on Monday sewing a new slipcover for the ottoman up in the apartment. We've had the same cover on it since we first built it, and it's needed to be replaced. The slobby guy that was up there last month, pretty much finished it off.

Of course I forgot to take a "before" picture, but this was the color scheme of the original slipcover.

I decided a pattern would hide stains best. Now that it's all done, I'm not sure I totally love this fabric, but whatever, it will definitely hide stains.

It's fun to see what I wrote on the bottom, back in the day, when we built the ottoman.

The boys had a fun President's day holiday up in Rockland with their cousin C.
