When we moved out here to Kentucky, we drove Steve's car out (just he and I) and decided we didn't want to make the drive again and we especially didn't want to do it with Davis. So, we had my car shipped out here and we all flew out. Well, that was a great idea in theory. In reality, not so great. First of all, when Steve's mom and I dropped my car to the shipping place, it was the most ghetto part of Salt Lake I had seen. I can't believe I left my car there. Scary. They said it would take about 10 days to get my car to Kentucky so we took it about a week before I left Salt Lake and I borrowed my mom's car until we flew out. Well, it took 23 days. Yep, over 3 weeks. To the company's credit, they did pay for a rental car for over a week after we freiked out that it was taking so long. Then, to top it off, this picture is what the passenger side of my car looked like when we got the car back. They knocked off the mirror. Seriously, who knew shipping a car would be such a hassle.

"Dependable" Auto Shippers...not so dependable

Ugh! That sounds like such a nightmare Summer! Glad you've got your car now and hope you guys are still getting all settled in. Merry Christmas!
That is awful. I hope they pay to fix it for you. You didn't have to sign a waiver did you? When Jason moved from here to Chicago, the company that moved his stuff also moved his car. I take it you had to choose a different company? Oh BTW, my cousins from KY are here right now and Ruthann said that Jenni (sp?) told her about you and about me knowing you. She said she had seen Steve at church with them. Hopefully you will get to meet them. They are a lot of fun and very nice people. We hope you guys have a Merry Christmas!
OH Summer!!! I'm sorry! That sucks!! I hope they pay to fix it too! We miss you!! Merry Christmas!
Geez.. how could they be so cruel to your cute car. And really, it can't take that long to get your car to you. You're just around the river bend, right? Hope you have a Merry Christmas! Loves!
WOW!! That SUCKS!! Hope everything else is going okay.
what a mess!!
That poor car, she has been through quite a bit! Have I mentioned how happy we are to have you here? VERY! Love you!
I just found out I have to come to Louisville the first two weeks of Feb. for training with UPS. I would love to see ya'll sometime while I am there! Also, I've been meaning to have you email Micah and Christie to invite me to their blog. kelsie.rose@gmail.com.
Hey! Louisville sounds great! Maybe we'll travel through sometime! I hope you get our Christmas card since I didn't look at your new address before it disappeared! The pictures are great! Talk to you soon, Dawn
