Olivia participated in Hope of America last night. She has been working on learning the songs for awhile. She has really enjoyed it. And the the songs are really patriotic. She in in the top right at the beginning of the yellow in the top. There were 2500 fifth graders wearing red, white, blue or yellow to make the flag.
I enjoyed the show and the music.
What I didn't enjoy was our car breaking down right as we go to the Marriott Center. We stopped at Wendy's to get dinner. Then the window wouldn't roll up, then the clock stopped working, then the blinker wouldn't work. Jere was putting his foot to the floor with the gas pedal and we were going 5 miles per hour. We got to a parking lot but there were no available parking spots so Jere had no choice but to park it in the a no parking zone. As soon as it was parked the car died and wouldn't start again. We had to call a tow truck and have it towed. Jenn was with us so she called Chema to see if he would be able to help us out and pick up after the show. He picked us up and took us home. We didn't get home until after 10.
Today we are a car short! So I had to have a friend of mine who works for me to come and pick me up. Jenn is going to come over after work and drive me back to Provo to a Mechanic shop if the car gets fixed. I hope it doesn't cost too much or we are going to have to get a new car. We were hoping to wait on a new car until after Jere's car is paid off but we will have to wait and see.
We got the car back on Wednesday. It needed a new alternator. It cost $512 dollars and it is now guaranteed for life with this mechanic shop.
