Oh What Fun it is/was to Drive...#ToyotaOKC #LetsGoPlaces #Giveaway #Sponsored


Oh what FUN it was to drive a 2015 Toyota Sienna for a week. I totally cried watching it leave my driveway this morning. This past week I was provided a 2015 Toyota Sienna LTD to drive and a gift card. Everything in this post is my own opinion, and I am TOTALLY responsible if you go out and buy yourself one for Christmas or if YOU WIN 1 of 3 Visa Gift Cards at the bottom of this post courtesy of Toyota!!


Leather interior. Oh the sweet sweet smell of leather and not a basketball sweat cloth interior. Yes, I speak from experience.


The room. Can you see that sliding track for the second row seating? My 6'2" son sat back there and up front without touching his sister or the dashboard. 


The room in that second row is amazing. I fit THREE car seats very comfortably back there. So for growing families, grandparents, or someone like me who just loves babies in car seats...I love this car. In the 2015 Toyota Sienna, safety comes first. With an advanced airbag system and LATCH anchors for your child seats, you can be confident that the most precious cargo is protected.


Space. Sweet space. Do you see all of those groceries? My husband thinks I spent $ just to see if I could fill up all the room in this Sienna. Of course he is wrong. I have Christmas presents, two kids home for two weeks, and even him home for a week. Maybe I should have filled this minivan to capacity. I really like the sunken storage, my bottles of pop don't roll around!



Ha! These two were very impressed with the dual HD DVD system. I was impressed because I could give them the wireless headphones and tune into Country Christmas on SiriusXM radio and even some 90's on 9- oh the memories. 




The 2015 Toyota Sienna has Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. Sorry, no pictures available for this, you are just going to have to trust me on this awesome driving feature. No texting or picture taking while driving!! The navigation was so so easy to use. We attended a Nutcracker wrap-up party for my daughter on Saturday. Even though I knew where we were going.




Did I mention how much I love the hands free calling? I did. I think everyone on my favorites list received at least 3 phones calls from me. The Entune multimedia, and in-steering wheel controls make the 2015 Toyota Sienna comfortable and convenient.

Here is the full list of Toyota Sienna Limited Features from the Toyota website:

Entune™ Premium JBL® Audio with Navigation and App Suite which includes the Entune™ Multimedia Bundle (7” high-resolution touch-screen with split-screen display, ten JBL® speakers including subwoofer), Driver Easy Speak, Entune® App Suite, HD Radio™, AM/FM Cache Radio, Gracenote® Album Cover Art, HD Predictive Traffic and Doppler Weather Overlay, Dual Power Moonroof, 18” Alloy Wheels, Auto-Dimming Side Mirrors with Puddle Lights and Reverse Tilt-Down and Memory Features, Premium Leatherette-Trimmed Power 60/40 Split & Stow 3rd Row™, Heated Steering Wheel, LED Daytime Running Lights, Premium Leather-Trimmed Front Seats, Removable Premium Leather-Trimmed Second-Row Lounge Seat Captain's Chairs, Metallic Front Grille with SuperChrome Surround, and Seating for Seven.

MSRP starts at $41,650 for the new 2015 Toyota Sienna Limited.


I really, really, really hated handing over the keys to this Salsa Red Pearl beauty this morning...but I will really LOVE if one of you are blessed with a gift card from Toyota! Enter below!

Elf on a Shelf with The 4-Crow's Blog 2015- Week 3


 Third week. Over. Already?!?! How does this happen. I wish the Christmas joy, celebration, lights, cheer, and giving would last 365 days a year! Maybe with a little less hustle and bustle, though. I still did not post on IG this week.
Our elves brought chocolate disguised as a soldier on Day 15. Yummy!
Day 16 brought birthday wishes to a certain 15 year old!
Day 17 brought a note. Christmas is coing are you ready my dear? It wont' be long, until Santa is here. he has checked his list, he has checked it twice. I'm happy to tell you that he thinks you are NICE!!
There's a little cuff craze going on across the nation that has been started right here in Tulsa, OK- have you heard of Rustic Cuff? Well...it seems that Malia has been admiring a few of our stacks and decided to play on day 18!
Awwww....elves after my own ♥! Day 19 they eluded Miss K and were found holding my morning can of Diet Coke!
The elves are NOT liking this warm Oklahoma air. They took matters into their own hand on day 20 and made a snow fort. 
Day 21, our elves are feeling pretty sorry for B. Not only does he have FINALS the last two days of school for the first time ever- his school decided that the students needed to learn to take exams and not be exempt- but he also has a very bad owie on the bottom of his foot from basketball. These bandages are so much fun!

Elf on a Shelf with The 4-Crow's Blog 2015- Week 2


 Week 2 of our visitors from the North Pole was busy. Very Busy. I didn't even have time to post pics on Instagram or Facebook, so the bloggy world is getting the first glimpse of all the wonder and excitement found each morning at our nest.
Day 8 found Malia in the tree with a simple note that said "Today I have a simple request. Whatever you do try to do your best." Miss K had a few tests at school on day 8. 
Day 9 was Nutcracker Day. Our little Miss played a soldier in this year's production

On day 10 Miss and and B played the elves favorite game- two of the candy canes were giant Elf on the Shelf Candy Canes. Unfortunately these were consumed by the humans before a pictures could be taken. 

Day 11 brought a HUGE snowball fight. These snowballs are magical. They glow when they hit someone hard enough.
Day 12 brought a fun treat. Miss K had to plant some fruit candies and see what they grew. 

Day 13, oh wow the magical fruit candies grew fruity candy canes. 

Day 14. Oh those elves think they are quite "CUTE" putties smiley faces all over our cuties.

Elf on a Shelf with The 4-Crow's Blog 2015- Week 1


It was Elf arrival week. Hopefully everyone's elf or elves made it safely from the North Pole! I can't wait to see what they were up to. Here is what Charley, Malia and Frost had going on at our nest. 

Starbucks for Black Friday!

Bedlam Cupcakes- Did you know elves like football? 




Our Christmas Tree went up on Sunday.  On Day 3- the elves were so HAPPY that they brought a note.

We watched the new Hallmark NorthPole movie on Sunday night. The elves thought it would be fun to bring a Find Me Santa Snowflake on Day 4!

Elves in Disguise for Day 5- silly elves. 

Day 6, the elves decided we needed a new Christmas Countdown. They got on top of it!

Day 7- They left a note on the bathroom mirror asking, "Do you want to build a Snowman?" It looks like they did!
