Alex's New Caravan



Today we picked up our new (to us) Dodge Grand Caravan from a dealership in American Fork. The Van is a 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan with 83k miles, it is marron, has the normal power features which includes a DVD for the boys, all in all its a great find. The reason for the new addition to our family was that last week Alex was in an accident the left her fine (although a little sore and shaken up), but left the car totaled. Was searched high and dry for a great deal for what we wanted and found it. Alex does a great job on the net finding those hidden treasures. Great job babe! Here are a few pics. -Matt
p.s.-The second pic shows the custom b-ball hoop out the top of the roof. That is not error, we got it installed so that we can shoot hoops on those long drives to Cali. Sweet huh?

The Yard



Here are the before and after pics of the yard. We finally laid sod this week on Tues 5/19, it was the hottest day of the year (90 degrees) but it was great to have it done. A neighbor and Big Al helped in the afternoon and I was gratful since I had been by myself for the previous 5 hours (the sod gets pretty heavy by then). We still need to work on the flower beds but we do have some of the plants for them. Alex after the sod was down said, "the yard looks so much bigger". It does look larger and the green to me seems so vibriant. Anyhow enjoy the pics.-Matt
