So Where do I begin!
Last week I received Brent's Graduation announcement and
noticed it's when my girls have their Spring Break so...Duh why
aren't I driving up to Utah so I can attend the graduation and
be with my family for Easter!
I talked it over with Ryan and he was ok with it and of course my
mom was ok with us staying with them so it was on the calendar!
A mini vacation for me and the girls!
We were all excited!
Then....that feeling came!
Something wasn't right!
I tossed and turned over it for a couple days then sent my mom a
text that we might not come up. Of course we're all sad and I'm going a little
crazy trying to figure out "why can't I go!" But the decision was made
I was staying home!
So Tuesday night we were driving out to my in laws and
I lose engine power!
It happened a couple more times while I turned around heading back home.
Ryan wanted to drive it so we drove to his sisters house
to ask Marlon her husband for some help.
All comes down to we need to change our spark plugs
and we're HOPING that's our problem.
Cheri and her family came to visit me on Thursday so Kelby changed one
of them and showed me how to do it!
Super EASY on the front three!
If you go up to the pictures you can see where the other 3 are located!
That whole metal piece has to come out! GRRRR!
So I've learned 2 things on this whole experience!
Very thankful I listened to the spirit and my gut and didn't take that 10 hour drive to Utah.
(which I probably would have been stuck in the desert cause my car wouldn't have made it)
And
When I'm looking at my next car! I will definitely look at the engine and see
where the spark plugs are at!!!!!!
