We got our car back yesterday!!!!!

When I called on Friday they said give them an hour and it would be ready. I said we live 45 minutes away and if there was a problem with it and I couldn't get it then, there would be a problem. So, I said I will make arrangements to pick it up on Monday.
It went into the Shop a year ago August.
We got it back one week to the day that I started calling and letting them know I wasn't happy and that I didn't want to have to come down there and lose my temper.
I let them know that Scott was too nice and he won't be calling again, and that I will. They replaced the fuel pump with no cost to us for the pump or labor.
It was fun to drive it to Scott's work and deliver it myself.
So if your thinking about taking your car in to a foreign specialist in Joplin Mo.
you might want to ask around first.
We have a new to us mechanic in Granby. He is a member of the LDS church and comes highly recommended. We are going to take the Malibu in next week. We will let you know how it goes. Jordan is so excited! She gets her license in October and can't wait to drive.

Our car has been in the shop for over a year now.
Scott is a very sweet and understanding man, he has taken care of calling about the car
up to this point. I went in to pick it up a couple weeks ago because they said it was running and we gave up on the electrical problems we took it in for.
Julia went with me. I paid them and said nothing to them about how upset I was about the fact that it took them so long to not get the job done.
I got in the Mustang and Julia got in the Audi and nothing happened.
Hoping Julia had forgotten how to start a car I tried, and still nothing.
I was mad! I marched back in there and said a few choice sentences about it taking a year and not having time for this. I had an appointment 40 minutes away and I had to pay for it whether I was there or not.
Now it has been two more weeks and Scott called to see where they were, now the fuel pump is bad. We had just had it replaced right before we took it to them. Scott said he would just tow it home he was not giving them any more money.
Darn right we aren't giving them any more money! And they will replace the fuel pump!
If it hadn't taken them a year to not fix the car it would still be under warranty.
I called Scott and told him that I had just called them up and told them I was tired of their "the dog ate my homework" excuses and I want my car back. We have been told two weeks every time we called and continued to drive our 15 passenger van every where and pay insurance for a car we haven't seen in a year.
They said I will find out and call you back in two hours. He said they have said that to him too. So I waited and after 2 hours and 20 they called back apologizing for the 20 minutes told me where they were at with the car and that they would have to replace the fuel pump and they would get right on it. I said he does know that he has already been paid all that he is going to get doesn't he? They said yes mam they do.
When I talked to them today they said I should have the car by Friday and they would keep me informed about any possible set back, and that she knows that any set back will cost them business and money.
It feels good so far and hopefully Friday will feel extremely satisfying.
I will defiantly keep you posted. Julia we inspire each other!

Scott and I went to the hospital on her due date to have her induced as planned.
After 12 hours of labor it was decided that the contractions were not being productive and the doctor that I grew to love and trust recommended a c-section.
Heather had gone to pick up the little ones and some of the kids went to get dinner for the family.
Scott stayed right with me through the whole thing until they took her out of the room.
She didn’t have a name for three days.
G 10 Girl number 10!!!
We had already used 18 girl names without duplication and that was amazing.
I think that our pick of names were very different but middle names are usually common.
Scott had all very traditional somewhat old fashion names. Julia, Jessica, Jennifer, Jordan and I had Heather, Christen and Alicia, Mariah and Brooklyn.
I had mentioned Hailey for the comet because he liked astronomy he said defiantly not but, then after three days I put his middle name Haymore and my middle name Lee together to make Haylee and we both knew that was the name.
Haylee Catherine (after my stepmom and friend)It was like Brooklyn Rayn after my mother Lynne and her fathers middle name Ray.
Wow that was tough.

I am not sure why Nickie has Brooklyn’s whole head covered but it is obvious why it looks like Heather is about to spew a drink. This is our oldest 10 children at the hospital waiting for number 14 to arrive.
St. John’s hospital was incredible! When Scott and I decided to have a baby together we knew that thirteen was enough but we wanted to share the experience with each other and to have our own child together.
I was thirty six and Jennifer the youngest child was almost three so when we decided to do this I wanted to do it right away. I wasn’t getting any younger and I wanted Jennifer and the baby to be close.

Do you know why Mormon women stop having children at thirty six?
Because thirty seven is just too many =)

My last two children were delivered at home with a mid wife and it was wonderful, it had also been 7 years and we live out in the middle of nowhere now, so we decided to go with a hospital.
I found the right hospital and they helped me find a doctor that would do things the way I wanted, then we decided to try for our own little miracle.
The youngest three stayed with Grandma Willis but the rest were there for the day of labor. It was a fun family memory.
