These are just a few things I am grateful for this past week..
Seth's Car- A little background..shortly after getting home from Bear Lake last weekend (pictures coming soon), I noticed my car was shuddering when I put on the brakes. After getting it checked out, I had my rotors turned and new brake pads put on my car. I was a little stressed about this unexpected expense, but was grateful we were able to get it done. 2 days after getting my car repaired, Seth's 'check engine' light came on in the Jeep and he all of a sudden was unable to go over 35 mph. Needless to say I was pretty concerned. We took it to the shop the next day and they let us know that it was a transmission issue-BAD. Lucky enough, the guy at the shop called a dealership for us and found out that the Jeep was under warranty for another 4 months, so all we would have to pay is $100 deductible. WOW. It was one of those moments where I realized just how much Heavenly Father was looking out for us. I feel so blessed.
Our New Camera Charger- We lost the cord to our camera charger a couple weeks ago. I have very little patience when I lose things, because I feel it should have been under my control. I ordered a new one online from what I felt was an 'iffy' company. The first charger I received didn't work. If anything, it sucked all the power out of our battery. I called them and they said they would send me out another one. This one actually worked! I know it sounds lame, but I am so happy to not have to worry about that anymore.
Lazy Weekends- I cannot remember the last time I had this lazy of a weekend. I am a little embarrassed to talk about it, but, on Saturday, I didn't wake up till 10. I did a very little amount of cleaning, then Seth and I went and got lunch. We came home and napped for another couple hours. Again, I woke up and did a little cleaning. I didn't shower for the day till 11pm. It was both disgusting and heavenly.
Red Velvet Cheesecake- The Cheesecake Factory came out with this cheesecake a couple weeks ago and I had been DYING to try it. I was pretty excited this last week because we were actually going to go there for one of my friend's birthday. By the time we got there, I was even more excited. I get excited over pretty dumb things, but red velvet happens to be my favorite cake in the world. After a delicious meal (as always) we tried to order my cheesecake and they were out :( I was disappointed, but my friend had told me that Maggie Moos was offering Red Velvet ice cream. That sounded just as good, so we headed there. Sadly, they were out of the ice cream. Bah! Dumb enough, I was pretty bummed. Luckily this weekend, Seth and I made time to stop by and see if the Cheesecake Factory had it, and they DID! It was definitely worth the wait.
