Hope this one's a keeper!

Since our truck broke down, we obviously have had to depend highly upon Ryan and Morgan for transportation. Makes me feel bad... "hi, thanks for letting us live in your house for 3 weeks, oh, and by the way, could you take us wherever we need to go in the mean time as well?" Not the best feeling. ANYWAYS! All that is over (hopefully)! We just bought a 1993 Nissan Pathfinder for only $600!! Yes, the air-conditioning is broken, aaannnd it does tend to run pretty hot when going up hills, but other than that (both easily fixable) all is well! We purchased it from a nice LDS couple who decided to up their space when they had their baby, so they did actually lower the price from $700 to $600 for us for having to fix the problems.
Still.... $600?! People like to give away cars out here. All the ones for sale for $900 and under here, would easily sell for near $1,500 up in the Spokane area. So I think we got a pretty good deal. Though, buying a new car makes me a little nervous about our cash situation.. seeing as Brayden doesn't start work until next month. So we'll see what happens.
So here she is! We named her "shannon"

We made it! (Barely)

Most of you have probably already heard about our little trip problems, so bare with me as I rehash the details.
Well, we got on the road at 3am Saturday morning, and around 5:30am the truck was starting to putt up hills and throw fits if we wanted to go faster than 45mph. Brayden kept stopping to check different things, but we couldn't figure it out. So, one more stop 20minutes into the Blue Mountains left us with a car that refused to pull forward an inch. Thankfully, Brayden still had his AAA card his mom got him in high school and it had a FREE 200 mile tow on it!! We waited around about an hour for the tow truck to come, and sat 3 hours in a truck with an older fellow who apparently thought nothing of chain smoking next to a visibly pregnant woman. I was dieing the whole time, trying to breathe, and also starving since the last time I ate was 3am and it was about 10am by the time we got to our destination: Janelle & Tim's in Caldwell,ID.
The tow truck drove away and I headed inside to eat! Aunt Sandi, Coree, Janelle, and Tim where all there doing some canning and hanging out. So Brayden and I were fed and I was sent to bed while Brayden and Tim went to Uhaul to see how much a truck would be, so we could tow the truck behind that the rest of the way. Around 2pm they came home with just a car dolly.. no truck. My amazing cousin-in-law Tim offered to pull the truck THE REST OF THE WAY! (Another 7 hour drive!) So as soon as they had our truck all hooked up, we jumped into his truck, and started back on our journey.
We arrived at Ryan and Morgan's around 9pm, and then Tim just turned around and went home. (The Lord better bless him immensely for doing such a selfless act for us!!) Once again, I was starving, and thankfully Morgan had made enchiladas.. which were AMAZING! So we brought in the bed and a few other things, talked for a while, then crashed.
The whole time I was terrified that Caleb was dead because he hadn't kicked since about 5am... so I just knew the smoke in the truck soffocated him! (Lol). Thankfully the little guy is back to beating me up from the inside, so all is well!
We talked to the apartment manager today, and everthing is still set up for us, we're moving in September 1st, and will still get our first month free. Brayden and I have our interviews tomorrow, so hopefully that works out! All is looking good so far, only thing left is to have both our birth certificates mailed to us so that we can get food assistance and I can get back on medical! I'm already nervous that there will be complications with that and I won't get to a doctor when I need to. Though, I'm sure everthing is just fine.. I was just spoiled by my last doctor and was able to have an ultrasound at every appointment, so I'm used to always knowing and seeing how he's doing.
Wish us luck!!!!!!!!!!!
