it's official...almost

It only took us 6 months that's not to bad right?! We've talked about needing to get new tags for the cars for a while now but it's just SO dang expensive. About a month ago we printed out the forms and figured out what we needed to do to go get the stupid things. First we had to change our insurance to a FL company, which took us about a month to finally do. And by us I totally mean Kyle. He likes to shop around, compare, find the best deal...I'm more of a sucker and just go with someone who will give me what I want. We ended up going with Geico (you'd have to ask Kyle why I have no idea) and the Mr. then went to tag agency and waited in line. He did have some funny stories from the tag agency place, it is always a great place to people watch. Anyway, after 30 minutes in line, making sure the girl got one with as many "7" 's in it as possible, and $440.00 check later...yes that Four hundred and Forty dollars...we have 1 Florida tag! Apparently, as if the whole process wasn't frustrating enough, the price of tags went up September 1st. Naturally. This is why we only got 1 tag. And I don't think I'll ever be ready to give up my OU tag.

Another fun fact about the great State of FL, you don't get to keep the tag to your car anymore until it's paid off. So we had to turn that over. We'll get it back when the car is paid off and we actually own the whole thing. So odd.

Here she is...


Little piece of advise if your job ever pays for your move...make sure to include things like tags and license plates, would be nice to get reimbursed for these babies. Oh well I guess we will always have them have a souvenir.

Almost totally legal Florida residents,
A and K
