Crazy Day....Crazy Cool.

So, it was a super crazy day.

To catch you up to speed, we are trying to down size and trade our car in for something else. So, the day started with Joey, Jackson and me hopping in our car and heading to a used car lot in Arlington yesterday morning. Well, you know how there is a slight judgement out there about used car salesmen? Well, it was totally confirmed for us during our little experience. We make it all the way to Arlington, after having called the guy about a specific car before we came. He said, sure I will have the car here and we can meet around 10am. We show up at 10am. No salesman to be found. Come to find out, he took the car to an auction about an hour before we were suppose to meet with him. What the..! Seriously?! We drove all the way out there and the car we were interested in isn't even there? Oh...but the sweet people there tried to convince us we needed a car that was close to double what we were wanting to pay. Great. Thanks for nothin'! Back to Flower Mound we went in the same car that we started in.

Well, our car situation actually got a little more interesting a few hours later when Joey called a dealership in Longview that he had done business with before. They said they have a car that is pretty much exactly what we were trying to buy in Arlington, except its actually nicer, and they are interested in buying our car as well! Woo...Hoo! Though we haven't seen the car in person we have seen pictures and decided to go for it. The car transaction is going to take place this Saturday when Joey goes to Longview.

Yea! Car situation down.....now on to a place to live.

So, now that I have updated you on our car situation, I wanted to update you on the video we posted a few days ago. Well, we submitted the video and were just hoping for a comment from Donald Miller, but he went one further and sent an email to Joey today!!! How cool is that. It was a personalized email thanking him for his video and asking for his address so he can send him a free copy of his book. Yeah! I can feel it, they are gonna be friends yet. You just wait and see.
