The pick up of Stan

---

Blog for our Mums

Today was the day we had long awaited (well since Saturday at least), it was time to pick up Stan (aka the Manitee). We first headed to AMA to get insurance (absolute mission and a half, also quite pricey) and a lovely licence plate to hide Stans goodies. Eventually we headed on over to the dodgy side of town to pick up Stan from the toothless owner. At last he was ours.

Driving back to Sarahs house was stressful to say the least, "Zach put two hands on the steering wheel", "Zach slow down", "zach get closer to sarash", "zach dont be so close to sarah" and the subsequent "KJ shut the hell up" followed. But we made it safe and sound. the next few hours was spent trying to get the awful smell out of the van and every single surface was wiped clean. Seat covers and curtains were washed and ole Stanny is finally in a drivable state.

Stay tuned for the adventure of Zach, KJ and Stan as they leave Calgary tomorrow to head to greener pastures.

Congratulations and we love the name!
I officially laughed out loud when the page opened and read that it is dedicated to the Mum's. I almost became teary! Zach, don't swear at KJ. Zach, drive safe! Remember, Stan won't fit through the Tim Horton's drive thru. Love Mom xoxo
