Drywall Drama...

Many of you know that Nick has been building a bathroom in our basement this past year.  Well, we finally got to the store today to pick up some drywall.  As usual, my husband thought it would fit just fine in the van because he "measured" it....  And, also, as usual, his measurements were not quite accurate.  So what do you do when you are in the parking lot of Menards, having already purchased the drywall with your spouse and two children in tow? You come up with a new plan... I won't go into detail, but we may not have obeyed all child seat safety laws on the ride home, but the funniest thing was the boys' reactions.  Conner was loving it.  He just laid there and giggled for most of the ride home.  Ben, however, was almost in tears, saying, "This is unacceptable!  This is not a good plan, Dad!"  We made it home in one piece and we even got the drywall down to the basement, so I consider that a success!  (Even though Ben may disagree...)
