Woohoo!!! Frosty beverages all around!!

That is great news. Thanks for the update, glad to hear that mom and baby are doing great (I assume older brother is well also)

Hope you got the parts you needed when you had the chance...( I couldn't resist one last dig...LOL)

Congrats on the new family addition. Looks like you'll have little helpers in the garage for many years to come.

Congrats on the new baby girl. Looks like it's a bench seat in the truck for you, easier to mount a car seat to. Take lots of pictures, read lots of stories. (Yertle the turtle is my favorite)

Congrats from Montana too! Sons are cool, daughters are something else. They wrap daddy's heart around their little fingers real fast. I hate to disagree with Huntsman, but the greatest things in the world are grandkids - we have 4 and they're even more precious than your kids. Enjoy them now before they grow up - the truck will wait.
