Okay I try not use the blog as an overt venue to share my political views on hot button issues, but I just can't keep quiet any longer. Two things have recently been addressed in the news that portray SC in a not-so-favorable light. Aaron and I have a running joke now...that at least in my opinion South Carolina has a tendency to be last in everything good and first in everything bad - which leads me to the issues at hand. The Governor is a joke (a virtual laughing stock - now even his own party members are calling for his resignation), the Congressmen are rude (Okay, Joe, you may not agree with the man - you may even think he did lie, but what about a little bit of respect for the office of the President), and at least some of the population/parents are so concerned that their children will be brainwashed that they won't even allow them to listen to a different view point. Okay so maybe you don't agree with the message that President Obama was sending to kids, so use the address as a "teachable moment." No, instead restrict what they see and hear in hopes to shelter your children from another viewpoint. I have news for you...they will be exposed to different view points at some point in their lives.
All this and so much more has caused me to question, what the hell am I doing in this state?
In other not-so-political news...we have a new stove, tv, and blue ray disk player. Why not just throw myself into the world of the consumerism. I am now just one of the masses. I admit...I caved, I just can't take the pressure that the Aaerins exert...I am now in the minority and all by myself in the world. 
Kendall also got a new big girl car seat. We haven't tried it yet, but since she is so tall and growing so fast we went ahead and bought the next size up. 
TGIF!
