GoOD NeWS...

Well I forgot to blog about what happened to Justin's car. Well they were able to fix the car and not total it out. Hooray for us! The funny thing is it took about $8,000 dollars to repair. That is a lot of money to put back into the car. The insurance company said that there was not enough damage to total it. That seems like a lot of money to not be totaled. Good thing that we have paid insurance our whole life. We only had to pay the co-pay. So there are no complaints on our end. The repair was all cosmetic as they termed it. Meaning that there was no structural damage at all. She looks as good as new. The only bad part was that we had to wait over a month to get the car back. But well worth the wait to get Justin's first love after his mission back, right?
We are so blessed that the accident was not worse and that they were able to fix it. Now Justin just needs to make sure that when he drives he has had enough sleep and pays attention to the road!

You know them?

So last night I was over at my niece's house and we were playing The Beatle's edition of Rock Band. I started singing along with Yellow Submarine, without looking at the words. The following conversation ensued (mind you she is 12 years old)....
my niece: "You know this song?"
me: "Yes I do. I have heard it before."
my niece: "So you know the band the Beatles?"
me: "Yes I do."
my niece: "Well do my uncles, I mean your brothers know and like this band too?"
me: "Yes, they do."
She just could not wrap her mind around the fact that we too know of the Beatle's and their songs. It makes me laugh. So now she thinks that I am cool because I like the Beatle's just like she does.
