Every once in awhile we still get a surprise in the form of a really quiet car ride. I'm noticing now though that we didn't have Norrie buckled in very well - twisted belt. tsk, tsk.
The night before we had been out kind of late, that morning had attended a late church time, and were heading to Grandma Marge's house for the first of several family Christmas celebrations. So this was a welcome development - we let them sleep for over an hour before arriving at Grandma's and the afternoon/evening was so much better for it!
