Houses and Shooting

      It's been a nice week minus our car troubles. It's starting to look like we bought ourselves a 'lemon'! We've had the car all of 5 months and spent a couple thousand dollars so far on repairs including new tires. Recently the car wouldn't start on the first try and the battery was showing signs of distress so we finally replaced it hoping that would fix the problem but unfortunately it only made it worse, much, much worse!! After the new battery the car wouldn't start on the second try but more like the 10th try or more, very FRUSTRATING! Greg has fixed four different things in hopes of fixing the problem but to no avail. We finally had to concede defeat and he took it to a mechanic yesterday. Now we have the privilege of driving Mark's little red truck, covered in stickers and all dinged up, all over the county. I'm glad we at least have another vehicle available but I sure do hope our car gets fixed and that it runs properly from thereafter. Car troubles are the worst and thankfully this is really our first time with severe car trouble and hopefully our last.
      Anyway, aside from car troubles it's been a good week. Charlie got to decorate a gingerbread house at her buddy J.T.'s house. Greg and I went shooting with our friends and we have a fun ward breakfast to attend in the morning. Lots of fun stuff!
She loved decorating her house and loved breaking and eating it even more.
Fun with great friends, Sabrina and Jason.

I didn't hit a single clay pigeon but I at least didn't hurt myself!
     So that's our current story. Let the continued Christmas festivities continue.
