we got a CAR

We didn't really know what to expect when we got here but hearing things from other people we always thought we wanted a car. We sorta had a car lined up for when we got here but since it took longer to find out if we were actually coming we told the people to go ahead and sell instead of waiting on us. We found out like 2 days later. But oh well.

We got here and it seemed like vehicles were kinda hard to come by but we found out right away that we did want one and the sooner the better. I am not in good shape to begin with and walking those hills to get back home were killer so we didn't go out too much. Just on little walks around the house. We attempted the park a couple times and a couple other places but I was too scared to even attempt the beach. 

We were excited to find out that the mechanics brother had a car for sale. Brant wanted me to go look at it but basically I said as long as its a car with 4 wheels and it can get me from point A to point B I am happy. And if something better comes along we can sell it anyway. So we decided to take it and we havnt looked back! We love it. We love that we can come and go as we please and that we don't have to bug anyone anymore and we love that we can buy groceries and go to the beach! Hurray!

Thank you to everyone here who drove us around, took us to get groceries (couldn't imagine walking home with the 2 boys in the chariot with all our groceries) and took us to the beach with them. Also a big thank you to Brant's cousins (Dustin and Lyndsey) for leaving us with a car seat for our little man! Wouldn't know what we would do without it! (even though its sometimes a fight between the 2 boys as to who gets to sit in it. Silly Liam) We have really appreciated everyone's generosity and are so grateful!

This is Brant signing the papers

This is Brant shaking the guys hand.... it was a done deal!

Just look at this bad boy!

My Boys - so happy we have a car now!! :) HALLELUJAH!
