Daddy...

...The Mechanic!!
On Sunday we went to leave and my car wouldn't start. We tried to jump it off with the help of our neighbor and Papa but the battery was completely dead. So... we went to the auto store and they said that we would either have to bring the car in (which we couldn't do unless we had it towed) or change the battery ourselves. Now, let me just say that my husband is absolutely wonderful around the house and can usually fix just about anything but when it comes to cars he doesn't know a whole lot. But, he was up for the challenge (it was either that or pay for a tow truck.) So, long story short we switched out the battery, bought a new one and he had it replaced in no time! I had to document this occasion with a few pictures just to aggravate him a little bit!:) We are so proud of you daddy! We love you!!

I didn't realize Craig stuck his tongue out when he concentrates (I do that too). FYI- If you belong to AAA they would probably take care of it for free for future reference=)

And you can wait for hours on AAA! And now he knows how to do it!! Way to go son! You are the man!!! I believe all my children stick out their tongues when they are concentrating! I'm not sure why, it is kinda cute! Gingy

I had to comment on the tongue thing too! That was the funniest thing about the pic!

Craig always sticks out his tongue when concentrating and Gracie has been known to take after her daddy and do the same thing. It must be a Bechtel thing. AAA is a good idea but it probably would have taken to long and we had the open house at our house that day. Thanks anyway!:)
