The time that our life was crazy.

So in between moving out of our apartment and starting Trav's new internship with Oswego, this was our life:

• Pack a bag to live out of for 2 weeks.
• Pack everything else, move out of apartment, drive to Yorkville, IL.
• Meet the family who is letting us crash in their house for 7 weeks, spend the night.
• Leave at 5:30am to get back to the city in time for Travis to get to work.
• Oh wait...at 5:45am, pull over to the side of the highway while car dies and blows smoke everywhere.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

• At 6:00 am, call tow truck.
• 6:15am: "What are you guys doing in IL? This state sucks." --IL State Police Officer
• At 7:40am, call to make sure the tow truck is on its way.
• 8:30: call again for tow truck.  Find out the tow truck was almost there about an hour ago, but just decided to turn around instead of come help us.
• 9:00am: tow truck arrives.

  

  "What are you guys doing in IL? This state sucks." --Tow Truck Driver

• Settle in while the mechanic looks at our car.  In a few minutes he comes in to share the bad news: Charles is down for the count.
• Rent a car for the next two weeks.
• Drive into Chicago and check in at the Chicago Getaway Hostel.
• By this time, Travis is not going to make it into work.
• Wait in line at Comcast for an hour, just to give them back all of their stuff.
• Spend a few days in this room:
  
• With this creepy gal on the wall:
  
• Laugh together and love each other the whole time :)

• Drive to Ohio, then Pennsylvania for 4th of July vacation (it rocked!)
• Go caving, white water rafting, and have an awesome time.
• Steal Janae's car from her for the summer (Mom & Dad Hancock were so helpful in letting us buy that from them.  Such a great blessing!)
• Drive to Indiana where Holly stays, and Travis drives on to Chicago to spend another week at the hostel.
