Another underwhelming blog....

So as many of the 5 or so readers we have may know that we got a new van.  Well a week ago Rick and Charla got a new van too. So when they got it we all loaded up in it and went for hot chocolate.  Was a lot of fun so this week we thought we would return the treat and take them for hot chocolate in our new van.  Not five minutes into the trip and we had hit a deer.  I was in the very back and didn't see a thing.  Just heard a loud noise and looked out the window were I saw pieces of our new car fly by.  From there we of course pulled out to get out and check the damage.  Our head light was broken and the drivers side door wouldn't open.  Bummer.

 Will and Rick went and pulled the deer out of the road so that no other wrecks were caused. We are all just thankful that Will reacted the way he did and did go off the road HWY 346 for the locals that know. Its very curvy and has no sholder.  We would have all been in much worse shape had anyother thing happen besides what did.  So we are all just thankful for being okay. With a car loaded with kids and families it was pretty easy to get over the fact that our new car was hurt.  Plus the car we bought was far from perfet on the extorior to begin with. 

 So now we are stuck with as a one car family with a somewhat broken car.  We knew this would happen at some point just didn't know it would happen with in 24 hours of being a one car familiy.  Shouldn't be a big deal as our insurace has a rental car if we choose to file a claim.  Will is about to head out to a body shop and just see what it would cost to make the door open.  From there we can order and over night the shipping on a new head light and be back in business.

 One ironic thing is the car wasn't inspected when we got it I was suppose to carry it up to the dealership to have that done.  Well when I called they told me an hour wait. Which I was not willing to do with a baby.  So I thought I would spend the 15 bucks myself.  Well of course I get out and about going to have it done and Margaret needs a nap.  So we come home and we going to do it today before going to Longview.  So that of course isn't going to happen.  I figure we could throw a fit at the Toyota place for them selling us a car that wasn't inspected. So if it comes to that we might see what they can do for us.  But for now just going to try and handle things on our own.

 So much for getting to save the first car payment... Or the next few.
