We have started our family, not with a child, or a dog, but with a hedgehog who we named Rosie. She's a little bigger now than she is in the photos, but not much and she won't get bigger.
More recently, we got Aaron a different car because the Kia wasn't cutting it. It's a Jeep Wrangler with a soft top and it's super fun to drive. Our first adventure happened with our new purchase this last Sunday. We decided to go for a nice relaxing drive, or so I thought. Aaron, however, had other plans. In short, we ended up getting stuck in a mud pit that used to be a pond. He just wanted to muddy the jeep a little as jeeps are meant to be, but the tires couldn't handle that amount of mud. We tried for a good two hours to get it out with me behind the wheel (YIKES!) and Aaron pushing, digging, squelching through the mud, and piling wood and hay behind the tires. Sadly we had to leave it overnight. We walked through a field until we arrived at civilization and Aaron's mom kindly came and got us. Thank goodness for cell phones!! Aaron and his dad went back the next morning with a jack to tow it out.
Not exactly how we wanted to spend our Sunday evening, but we laugh at the experience now!
Well, that's about it for now. I'll try to keep the updates coming.


I have to say...I was waiting for this to happen :) You should ask him about his Exterra...J and I pulled it out a few weeks before we got married with a friends SUV...it was quite the adventure. So excited you guys are together and hope you have many more wonderful adventures together!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, that is when he ran over my tow rip and broke it and didn't buy me a new one. I had to tie a knot in it so I could finish pulling it home from the KFC parking lot.
