New, New and New

So in a weeks time period we have managed to moved from Central California to an hour from Seattle, WA. We made the journey in two days with the help of my brothers driving and that is when the adventure began. So as if a 15 hour jounery isn't enough, while driving down steep mountain hills Paul's beloved Taruas decided to try and brake down. By that I mean its engine cut out on us and we had no power, luckily there was no cars or trucks around and an exit nearby. We pulled off and let the car rest for a while, we were just hoping that we could make it to Oregon for the night before any big decisions were made. Fortunately we made it all the way to Washington without any more problems.

So Thursday we checked in and got our new house and Friday all of our furniture was delivered and the unpacking began. But back to Taruas, we dropped her off at the mechanics to see if it was an easy fix or not. Well it turns out the fuel pump was on its last leg and would cost at least $800. So then we found out more was wrong with the car and we decided it wouldn't be worth trying to fix, so on top of unpacking we had to look for a new car. We ended up purchasing a new 2009 Dodge Journey. We got a sweet deal and love the vechicle. Tuesday we spent the day getting the run around at the hospital and apparently being seven months pregnant gets you better service than what you would regularly get but it is still crazy all you have to do, and Wednesday we flew out to Utah for vacation. Needless to say the house is about 80% put together and I can walk in the front door and feel somewhat home because the family room and kitchen are the most put together.

It has been a crazy week and so much more has happened but I won't bore you all, I will post pics of the new house and car when I find the camera. I put it somewhere and I don't know where it went, things got moved back and forth between cars too much. But all in all Washington is great so far, we love the trees, the green, and supposed rain (I am still waiting for it.) So pictures to come.

Oh and congrats to all of our friends who have recently had their babies. There were way too many of you to keep up with. We love you all.
