The Good, the Bad, the Blessings!

Filed under: by: Landon

I get to update finally! Sorry to all of my faithful followers for not giving up on me. Well, where do I begin? The good, the bad, or the blessings? I always choose bad news first so lets start with that. Well at work, I have been assigned to work every Sunday (aweful!). At the beginning of February I got my appendix out in emergency surgery (not fun not to mention the $12,000+ in medical bills since we have no insurance!!!). A few weeks later the engine in our Montero caught on fire coming down Spanish Fork Canyon ($3,000! Again, not covered by insurance). Those were the worst things.

The good..... we are all healthy, well fed, warm at night, and have the gospel. Also, we are taking a vacation to Disneyland with my whole family in April. Also, we got to go to Chris's family cabin in Schofield for a couple days and ride around on the snowmobiles and fourwheelers and just relax! That was great!


The blessings...... where do I begin?!?!?! There are a couple of BIG ones that we are so grateful for. I know that all our blessings come from a loving Heavenly Father. First, the $9,100 bill that we got for my "less than 24 hour" stay in the emergency room was reduced to $100! Yeah, that is not a typo, ONE HUNDERED DOLLARS! What a wonderful surprise. Haley and I had to read the letter about 5 different times, just to be sure. The a couple days later, the $3,000 that it was going to take to fix our car turned into aout $1,000! Still, no small chunk of change but I'll take a $2,000 discount anytime.

Those are the biggies, and I dont want this to be too long. I hate super long posts! Hope to hear from you all!
