Grandpa's Little Helper and a Walmart Photo review, of sorts.

Our story starts with our car taking a dump a few days ago. Okay, not really a dump, but it needed a new fan clutch and thermostat housing. Luckily, my father-in-law is a certified mechanic so we only had to pay for parts since he kindly made the repairs for us, per usual. (awesome sauce, no? He's pretty rad - when he's not making beer jokes about my talent for swelling up like polyacrylamide in water when pregnant)

To make a not so long story even shorter, he fixed the car with my big guy supervising/getting in the way/helping/not listening. Figuring there was a photo op present, I grabbed the camera and started snapping away. Later that night I was showing my mother-in-law what I got and started to play around with a layout to showcase the few that we both really liked and after a few tweaks and a border got this:

The mother-in-law loved, so I thought printing this bad boy (the picture, not the actual boy) out would be the way to go. Only thing was, Walmart's prints only go up to 8x10 and I wanted a 10x12. After looking around, though, I found that I could print it as a poster at $5.50 for a 10x12. It took maybe 20 minutes after ordering and my print was ready for pickup, even though they told me it would be ready the next day. When all was said and done, the quality wasn't super great, but for the price and convenience of having it NOW, I'm pretty sure I would use them again. Although I haven't researched any other printing avenues yet, so I'll get back on that. More pictures to come of our fun weekend BBQ with our friends, once Nick isn't working until all hours and i have time to sit down and edit some pics.
