Except now my car has front wheel drive and anti-lock brakes. Puts a damper on the whole spin thing.

Barbi wigs! I remember that Lauri and thought you would LOVE them!!!!
What do I know???????????????????
Come on Mom...really...Barbie wigs??? :)
By the way Lauri, the yellow go-cart WAS yours also. It was to the whole family from Santa!
I have some awesome memories of Clark and I on that thing. Do you remember when the brakes went out and Clark and I drove it around and around the driveway yelling "MOM!" every time we passed the front door. Good times.
I loved that post.
