Tessa goes to the outlets

Tessa is going outlet shopping today with Mommy, Grammi and Lori. But
first we stopped for breakfast.

Tessa takes a test drive!

Mama test drove a VW Routan today (yes, a minivan...which only proves
the old addage: never say never). But Tessa had her eye on this cute
little Beetle convertible. Which proves another old addage: the apple
never falls far from the tree!
