The cousins came to play :)

Today I enjoyed watching my brother Jed and his wife Amber's kids. We loved having you over to play :)

Happy Birthday Great Grandma!!

We love you, Happy Birthday!!

Van update: I Hate teenagers!!

So it turns out that some one (my guess is dumb teenagers) put sugar in our gas tank and that is why it died on us on the freeway. Twelve hundred dollars and a new fuel pump and everything else later it is now working again. But seriously, isn't there anything better to do with your time than putting sugar in peoples gas tanks?!?

Bring it on!!

I just have to say bring it on.... seriously. I am laughing at all of the things that are breaking or going wrong right now. I am not one to complain but it is starting to get pretty interesting around here. Between major financial problems, every appliance we own breaking, no water,our home owner's not paying the bills even though we have paid them, family health issues, just to name a few.... today we were heading out of town and our van stopped working in the middle of the freeway and we had to wait on the side of the freeway with three hot, tired, cranky, hungry, needing to pee kids for two hours during rush hour traffic (SCARY) while we waited for a tow-truck and a rental car. Then, Josh went with the tow truck guy and I went and to the rental car place and as I was driving to pick up Josh the guy who worked at the rental car place called and said he left his cell phone in the rental car so I had to turn around and drive all the way back to Orem to take him his phone and then drive back up to pick up Josh (and as I am sure you all know I HATE to drive, especially rental cars.... talk about anxiety!!!) Meanwhile, all the kids are DONE and screaming and freaking out now that we aren't going to Grandma and Grandpa's house now. Let's just say we are so GLAD to finally be home.
I have decided that if anything else is going to break or needs to be replaced let it happen now while we are thinking this is still pretty funny! Bring it on!

Aaaahhh, thanks I just needed to vent for a second. It was a LONG afternoon.
