Brandon and I recently took a wonderful trip to Branson. Although I must admit it started out a little rough I know it was all for the good. We got up early on the morning of our departure and loaded up. We took Elizabeth to Brandon’s mom and dad’s house where she would be staying for the next couple of days. Brandon had to go to school and I needed to run a few errands before we left. Mom graciously let me borrow her car to do the things I needed. Everything was going according to plan! There were chances of really icy roads so we headed out as quickly as possible. Elizabeth was happy when we left (which is always good for a mommy) and we were actually ahead of schedule. At last, a weekend to relax! Due to the time of day and the road conditions traffic was rather slow going on I-35 but who cared it was just the two of us enjoying each others company so why complain after all we were on our way. Just as the traffic was beginning to ease we were about half a mile from the turnpike when I went to get my phone out of my purse. At that moment I realized I had failed to return mom’s one and only car key to her. Due to the expense of making a duplicate electronic key this one is the only key to that vehicle. I quickly broke the news to Brandon who was slightly too mostly unhappy. Dad was willing to meet us half way which was very helpful and we were able to buy new windshield wipers which were also very helpful. I am also sure that we were probably saved form some horrible accident, our character was built, and we got to spend more quality time in the car together. So as you can clearly see this was a wonderful blessing in disguise. And the rest of our trip was fabulous! I immensely enjoyed spending time with my best friend!!
