OK I think WE are back!!

So sorry but it has been a crazy few months. It started with me getting MONO!!! Seriously who gets MONO? Apparently me! It was so not fun , being bed bound for a month. Sounds great until you realize that your three year old doesn't like that and you have to do dishes, laundry, and clean. And my doctor told me no contact sports for two months, I have a 3 year old boy, life is a contact sport for him! It was really not fun, I mean why couldn't I have gotten it is high school like everyone else!! Thank goodness for my Mom! Ok I am done venting!

So when I was sick Jake and I talked about selling our car and using our tax money and savings to get a newer car. We decided against it because our car wasn't really worth what we wanted to have for a new car, so we would just drive it till it died, or that is what I thought. Two weeks later Jake got in an accident (went across three lanes, hit the back of another car which spun Jake around and he hit the wall) Thankfully no one was hurt, I really think Heavenly Father just reached down and held Jake and made sure he was safe. But unfortunately the car didn't make it :( But the amazing thing was that insurance gave us over $1000 more then the care was worth if we had sold it. We were also able to find a much better car then we expected to and Jake talked them down to an amazing deal. It has been a crazy few months! Now the only thing I have to do is learn to drive the car, it is a stick! We will see how that goes! :)
Hope every one is great, I have tons of pictures to post and I promise I will do that soon!
