Sad part of the story:
On our way back from Idaho we had some car trouble. We were only about 10 min from home (luckily not on the freeway) and had some problems with our transmnission-- our car wouldn't move and made this awful grinding sound. Luckily the Farrells came and resuced us in their Suburban and towed our car back to our house. That was quite an adventure given that it was snowy and dark. But we made it. Jon has fixed part of the problem but it still makes a funny noise, hopefully he will be able to fix it and we won't have to take it in to the shop!
Funny part of the story:
Because our car doesn't work our next door neighbors, who just bought a new car, let us borrow thier minivan 'till ours is fixed. Last week we drove it to Bountiful to visit the Farrells and as we were pulling into Jon's neighborhood we saw one of Jon's high school friends walking out to his car with his baby. Jon was excited to stop and show him Asher, but just as soon as he started to slow down, he changed his mind and instead sped up past his friend. I looked at him in suprise and he just looked straight ahead and said,
"We can't stop, we are in a minivan. I'm not ready to stop in a minivan yet."
I guess a minivan is a long cry away from the Mustang. We'll give him a few years to break into the "minivan stage" of life.
Oh and just for fun here is a cute picture of Asher dressed up to go out in his snow suit
and sleeping with his mountain man dad.

I'm convinced that is why SUVs are so popular. People like Jon and me who can't imagine being in the minivan stage of live, yet need to have lots of space for kids.
