in case you haven't heard

on the way to Vegas last week for my 30th b.day/Donovan's 31st b.day/our 9th anniversary our car broke down! We had to drive over 200 miles in 110°+ weather with no ac! We dropped it off at the Honda dealership the next morning and the mechanic gave us the bad news, it needed a new transmission. It would be $3500 and it would be ready Tuesday, 2 problems with that...the car isn't worth $3500 and we had to leave the next day! We were stranded...we could fly home. We could rent a car. We could buy a car. We went looking in their used car lot to see what they had and we found a cute little 2006 civic with really low miles and a 7 year warranty for a great price! We decided it was meant to be and started the paperwork. The dealership was great, they loaned us a car so that we could leave while they detailed it, they filled the new car up with gas...I felt like they really were trying to help us out. We were so glad to have ac on the ride home! The new car gets about 10 MPG better than the old car and has a sunroof, I LOVE it! Anyway, here are some photos, you knew they were coming, right?

Here is our gorgeous hotel room, it was more like an apartment, it was huge!







Overall, we had a great time. I can't wait to go back!
