Another Sick Car

Our Chevy Trailblazer wasn't the only car suffering this summer.

For our Killpack reunion, we pulled the Killpack's four-wheelers on the back of our truck. On the way home, we noticed the engine running hot, and a loss in power. It seemed to be giving out, although it still kept running (thankfully). We made it home, but it just wasn't running the same as it had. And with the Trailblazer not being able to be a source of transportation, we were required to use the red Mercury Sable that James bought as an in town car.

Since we kept saying the truck was sick, we had to get Dr. Grant to come and take a look at it:



So cute, I must say. Anyway, shortly after this debacle, we had to get one of these:


A black Nissan Pathfinder. With Grant going to Brain Balance, and we do travel a lot, we decided we would get our own brand new car.




The dealership really wanted to sell us a car, and they wanted to sell it to us the same day we decided to get it. The kids went to the Killpack's while James and I sat at the dealers and went through the process of buying a brand new car. Lots of negotiating.

But we got it, and rolled away with it at about 9:00 at night. I got to drive it back by myself, and believe me, I was super extra cautious about deer while traveling at night in my brand new car. The kids came home with James 45 minutes later and we had to snap a few pics. We love our new car. :)
