Fridge For Sale

Because of a stupid mistake when we moved into our rental house, we are now the proud owners of a fridge that we no longer need. Anyone in need of a 1 year old GEĀ® 18.2 Cu. Ft. Top-Freezer Refrigerator?? Here is a picture of what it looks like




We paid about $400 for it at Home Depot last October. If you are interested, leave a comment and make an offer. We are planning on moving sometime in October, so it would be available then.

Accidentally....

I had my first accident last night. Well, second if you could the time I slid on ice and ran off the road into a support wire. Katie Kozak and I were on our way to Gier park to play a little sand volleyball. We were on Larch and in the very left lane. There was a guy in the lane next to me and he decided that he was going turn left onto a side road and just plowed right through me. Thankfully everyone was completely fine. My car came away with very little damage. Just a scratch down the passenger side of my car, some cracked fiberglass, and the plastic cover over my wheel was torn off. The other guy's front end was demolished. I was able to drive away while I am not so sure he was able to drive his car. Katie and I had a good laugh about it and even made it for the last half of the volleyball game.

Coming To America...

We got back from Mexico on Sunday morning at 6am. What a week! It was amazing to say the least! So many great things happened - many many answered prayers, great new friendships, a great time with my kids, the list goes on and on. The kids did so well! I was really suprised because travel days were 18 hours long each way!

There are so many stories to tell, which are mainly funny and interesting only to the people who went on the trip. So, I will spare you all the details and just post some pictures:

Mini-Vacation

These are pictures we took while we were in RosaRita, Mexico. We finished up our house 1/2 day early, so we drove about 20 minutes from our worksite and found a beautiful beach! It was so nice to swim in the ocean and clean off the layer of dirt we all had from the week. It was a great time with a great bunch of friends!!
