Texas Tags

We might be a little late getting our Texas Tags, but not for lack of trying.  We tried for weeks to get our inspections done to Cherry and the Camry, but the computer was down for a while.  Once we finally got to get an inspection, it turns out our insurance was still NC insurance.  We had to call our insurance agent and get Texas automobile insurance instead of NC.  Once we got all that straightened out, we went to the Texas Taxes Office to apply for Texas Tags.  The line was long but we waited and waited.  The boys were so good and played their electronics.  E was in her stroller and was quiet for most of the time.  Everywhere we go here, please smile at her and say she's beautiful.  Of course I agree with them, but little blond girls are few and far between where we live.  When we finally got to the front and were called, the lady told us we were missing a form that we should have received when we had our cars inspected.  It's some form that out of state people need.  I don't think the car place knew we were out of state people trying to get tags, so they didn't give us the form.  We had to drive all the way back to the auto place, get this form filled out, then drive back to the tax office.  I think that trip alone took us an hour.  3 hours and $350 later we have Texas tags for both our cars.  In TX, cars are supposed to have tags on the front and back of the vehicle.  Not a problem for Cherry, but the Camry doesn't have a front plate holder.  So that will be our next order of business.  Ugh, again...so much stuff to do when you move!
