We're High Class

Yes, we have joined the high society of people that own barbecues. After 2 hand-me-down barbecues (1 which never worked, while the other worked maybe half the time), we decided that we would like to have a grill that actually worked. So we got one in time for our 4th of July barbecue this year. You're probably thinking, "Hey weirdos...having a new grill doesn't make you high class!"
To that I respond, "You're absolutely correct." But I should note that the method of getting our new barbecue home is what has launched us into the upper echelon of high class society. Obviously our car is too small to have put the pre-assembled unit in the trunk. We tried to fit an unassembled unit in a box into the trunk, but once again, to no avail. So we decided to wheel the pre-assembled unit home, from the parking lot at Lowe's to our back porch...almost 1/2 mile in total. As you can see, we were beaming with pride as we brought our new little friend home.

Ok… Seriously how awesome is that!?!? And truly how many people can say we wheeled our BBQ home. This would totally be a truly priceless and memorable moment that would be a great story for the Grand Kids.

When I was in medical school… your grandpa and I wheeled a BBQ home in flip flops with the heat index reaching as high as 111, sweet pouring down our faces… can you tell I just love it!!!

You 2 are AWESOME!!!
