A Wedding and A Tow Truck

Char and Michael are now married! It was so fun to be there with them at the Sacramento Temple on the 31st and then they had a reception on the 1st. They are darling!





My cute boys in their matching pink wedding ties.


The cousins minus Cache.



They had another reception on the 8th in LA and so I headed down with the two boys to attend that. Luke had work and then took his 4th section of the CPA exam and so he couldn't come down with us. I was cruising along in our good old Jeep Ruby in Santa Barbara and was almost to LA and to the end of a long day in the car when all of a sudden the Jeep lost power and I was lucky to make it to the shoulder. I ended up having to get towed in to town to get repaired and was thinking that we were in for a few hundred dollars worth of repairs.

Instead, I had happened upon the nicest mechanics ever. They immediately checked under the hood, found "a wire" that had broken, fixed it, and sent me on my way free of charge. I buckled both boys back in and away we went. I don't know what broke, but I do know that I was taken care of in a situation where I was totally vulnerable. Thank heavens for wonderful people!


Kade thought the tow truck ride was so cool!

Hi! Funniest thing--long story but I came across your cute blog. I think our husbands are cousins (and our names are the same). Arnold and Joan are my husband Alan's uncle and aunt (does that make sense?). We enjoyed seeing them this past summer in Utah when they visited.

Anyway--just thought I'd leave you a note to say hi! What cute little boys you have. :)

Wow that was a good story Tiff! I hate having car trouble-especially on the freeway! Glad everything turned out okay for you. Just reminiscing about those good ol' trips to Scipio! Good times!
