Never posted on here before, so i hope it goes ok. Danny is not much of a blogger and so every time we talk to Anita she bugs Danny about not posting...so i finally told him that i would gladly post as long as someone would invite me:) so Anita gladly sent me the invite and now here i am:)
We are pretty much snowed in, here in Utah. I has snowed constantly for the past week, but even though its really cold and snowy we are doing alright. I am actually glad we finally got some snow here. It hasn't snowed all year until this week, so its been cool to see. I just went to the dentist on Friday for my follow up root canal appointment. I spent an hour and a half there. It was not too fun! The sad part is that i would have never had to go to the dentist for my root canal in the first place, if I hadn't had the crappy dentist who removed my wisdom teeth! Anyway, that was not the final appointment either. All they did was remove the temporary filling they had put in and then they put a temporary crown on for now. I have to go back in January for the real crown. I was not feeling good yesterday. And on top of that the dentist said i can't chew gum or eat gummy bears or anything hard or crunchy! So that pretty much means i can't have anything I want to eat this Christmas. Mushy foods only, but don't worry i'm not bitter!
oh and on top of all of that, my car broke down last week...and i have been relying on Danny to take me everywhere. I really hate when my car breaks down because i feel so out of place. I have no idea what to do with it. I mean I know how to change the oil and tires and things like that but when major things happen, I don't know what to do. So finally on Friday I asked Brian and Natalie if they would help tow my car to the mechanic with their jeep. They said yes and so we took it in. The car place called Danny yesterday night and told him that the car was ready. We had to drive in crappy conditions, since it had been snowing all day and the roads were frozen solid, we made it there ok to the mechanic just to find out that the spark plugs were the problem. this might not seem too big of a deal to you but let me explain why i was upset about it. So last sunday is when the car actually stopped working...right before i was on my way to church. I could not get the car started...and when i finally did something was terribly wrong. so i had to walk to church and later that day while we were talking we decided tha it might be the spark plugs that were bad. so Danny went to the auto parts store and bought the plugs...but we had lots of trouble changing them. Danny could not figure out where on the engine the plugs were supposed to go in. so we were freezing and cold and after a long dilerberation we decided to give up and take it to a shop. we ended up paying like $400 to have them redo the plugs and change the lightblub on my licence plate and replace the lignition starter. I was pretty upset about it, but Danny is going to call around and see if any place offers to do it cheeper, and if he can the car place will refund us our money.
I guess i should just be grateful my car is back working now.
we love all you guys and we hope to see some of you in Februrary
we are so excited to go to the temple. Most of my mom's family is going to be there, witch will be really nice, since most of them could not come to our wedding. we are also going to try to go to disneyland when we go, which we hope will be much better than our last attempt.
hope everyone is doing well:)

Hey, Jessica! I'm so glad you finally posted - sorry it took me so long to get you the invite. I thought I had sent it at the beginning - OOPS!
Car trouble is definitely frustrating. We recently had a similar "I-could-have-done-it-myself" experience. They really stink. And $400 is way high for spark plugs, I think. Good luck with getting a refund, but don't hold your breath!
