So it is officially a week before the holidays begin!
Christmas shopping can beat up your wallet pretty bad, no to mention the bills and other expenses that hit you every month.
I can get pretty antsy sometimes and I am always looking for fun things to do in my area that are very inexpensive.
Once a week Ken and I have a little "Date Night" and tonight we are going to get out of the house, have a nice peaceful evening, and the best part is IT WON'T COST A DIME!
We will be going to the annual Larsen's Christmas Light Show in Elburn, IL. You pull up to this house turn your radio to their channel and watch over 225000 lights dancing to the music. It can be very romantic and really gets you into the holiday spirit. It is one of my favorite things to do right before Christmas.
It is a perfect way to do something nice for someone special in your life. Another great thing about it is that it is very kid friendly. You can bring the youngin's and they will be sure to be entertained all night.

Today is Hotshot Friday! Anything that needs to move fast, locally or across the country, is what I would like to see! This can be anything from a cargo van or sprinter to a straight truck or tractor trailer. K&L prides itself in being the best expediter. We are very fast, safe, and we have extremely clean trucks! :)
Please feel free to give me a call or shoot me an email.
I enjoy the quoting process so if you have anything that you would like to consider K&L for, send it on over!
Happy Friday!
And everyone please have a fun and safe weekend!

It's Here!!
Ladies and Gentleman!
I would like to make a very important announcement!
P90x2 has offically arrived!
Yes, thats right, I am a P90x addict. Their is nothing better than waking up and having a little Tony time. Now before anyone gets too excited, I will be finishing this last month of the doubles routine before taking on this new challenge. I would really like to stop and start the new one, but I am 52 days in to this 90 day workout and have not skipped one lesson. Plus I am pretty sure I am going to need the doubles to warm up for the second one! The P90x2 trailer scares me. But no worries, I will beat it!

Everyone enjoy this beautiful day we are having! Haha.

Addition to the K&L Family!
We have a new addition to our family. We are new parents of a happy, healthy, brand new refrigerated sprinter to add to our fleet! As any new parent, we have a braggin’ picture to show. And, unlike many pictures of newborns where they look like little versions of prize fighters or miniature old men, this newbie truly looks gorgeous inside and out. As you can see by the picture, the graphics on this bad boy look like we walked right onto the set of Pimp My Ride or Monster Garage.
What you can’t see in the picture is that the double insulation and the efficient refrigeration unit can hold your expedited/exclusive temperature controlled cargo down to 0 degrees. Also, we have an added external lock on the doors that satisfies security requirements, keeping your high value pharmaceuticals or food ingredients safe and protected.
Obviously this beauty will not just be driven to church on Sundays. We are ready to move those time sensitive, temp controlled shipments of yours.

Another example of K&L going the extra mile!

The Final Countdown
Good Morning!
I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend as much as I did!
Friday night was my last day of double workouts for an entire week! Saturday - Monday the 19th will be one per day. And you have no idea how happy that makes me. I have been doing 2-workouts a day for 3 weeks now. And it is so draining.
This break couldn't have come at a better time, Saturday was the K&L Christmas Party and it was absolutely perfect. We played a lot of fun games, danced, had a great dinner, and took pictures. They weren't just any regular pictures though... we had a company that came and took "Photo booth" pictures (Like the ones in the middle of the mall) They brought all kinds of dress up masks and props, it was probably the coolest thing I have ever seen! Everyone jumped right in and got goofy with it. I looked at all the pictures that next morning and literally fell to the floor laughing.
Everyone at K&L is so close with one another, we are able to just completely let loose and be so dorky that it is fun. I have never met another person who enjoys work events more than the people here. We really are like a big family.
Every year all of my coworkers pitch in and buy a present for our boss. I truly believe that this year was our best gift yet! We got a K&L Corn hole game. At the Christmas party we all got assigned a teammate and we will be having a in house competition. My partner is Bill! He is our local dispatch manager. I haven't seen him play yet, but I hope he's good because I can get very competitive! Ha ha.
Since I was so busy this weekend with Party planning and hanging out with the family, I am finding myself falling further and further behind on my Christmas gifts. I still have some shopping to do and I only have 1 present wrapped! To top it all off last night I noticed that this next weekend is the last weekend before the Holidays! It's CRUNCH TIME!!!
