There was a girl.
This girl lead a pretty uneventful and simple life.
She was married to the Man-of-Her-Dreams, and together they raised their 5 children on a little farm in Texas.
One day the girl got bored, so she started a blog.
On this blog, she wrote about embarrassing things her children did,
She wrote about sobbing the first time she took a pig to the butcher.
She wrote about her parenting mishaps.
She shared pictures of her baby tomatoes on the vines.
She never really thought anyone would read her silly little blog.
But before long, she noticed people
(other than her mother and sister) were actually reading what she wrote.
She was shocked!
So, she started another blog....
On this blog she shared all sorts of yummy family recipes with people all over the world.
The girl was happy.
The next thing she knew, she was approached about doing a reality TV show.
On this show she traded places with another mother who lived far far away from her beloved farm in a totally different environment than she was used to.
The girl had fun!
She continued to write in her blog.
She continued to be surprised that people actually stopped by every day and read her pointless drivel.
But.... the girl was having fun and continuing to love her simple life on the farm surrounded by her children, the love of her life, and cow poop.
Then the girl got an email.
This email was offering her a chance to drive a brand new Chevy Malibu and share her experiences with the people who read her blog.
All they asked was that she be honest and have fun!
She was sure there had been some sort of mistake.
Didn't they know she wasn't anybody special?
Didn't they know she was just a simple Mom, living a simple life?
And yet they wanted her to have part in this amazing adventure?
Thursday this girl went to John Keating Chevrolet in Crosby, Texas.
She was sure they would laugh at her and toss her out on her ear when she asked them to hand over the keys to a beautiful Diamond Edition Chevy Malibu for 4 weeks.
Instead, they were wonderful!
They gave her the keys, they spent a long time showing her everything about the car
and then..... She drove it off of the lot!
She spent the entire ride home waiting for the police to pull her over and charge her with Grand Theft Auto, but they did not.
She had great fun playing with all the cool features of the car...
She loved listening to her iPod on the stereo; she loved how she could talk on her cell phone using the car as a Bluetooth.
She loved how wonderful that new car smell was.
Today, that girl is starting her "Mom's Time Out" adventure.
She will share all kinds of fun facts and details about the Chevy Malibu both here on her blog and on the
Gotta Love Chevy website.
I hope you have fun reading about her adventures in the Chevy Malibu over the next 4 weeks. Because she sure is having a BLAST participating in The Houston Area Gotta Love Chevy Mom's Time Out campaign!
Thanks Chevy!
And a special thanks to
John Keating Chevrolet in Crosby, Texas... Those guys ROCK!
The Houston Area Gotta Love Chevy Moms Time Out campaign is being sponsored by the Houston Area Chevy Dealers who gave me a 2010 Chevy Malibu to test drive for one month in exchange for blogging about my experiences with this vehicle. I have also been assigned some fun missions to complete and have been compensated with gift cards so as to complete these missions. All opinions stated are my own, completely honest and objective.
