SO, the night we flew out to Indiana we had set up an appt with a lady to pick up a crib dresser and a changing table for our new bundle of joy!!
Well, we got out there super smoothly thanks to our friends Rob and Staci for letting us use there truck....
We got out there and everything was perfect met the family saw the crib which they already had assembled for us and everything in A+++ condition for reals... Well, we loaded in the truck. (Well, Camron I am 5 months pregnant) and than I thought we were on our merry little way to go... I heard the give everything a little shake to make sure it was going to be ok and nothing moved so in my opinion it was all ready...
Well, we drove down the road from HURRICANE..... OK this town I am not sure how it got it's name, but it is freaking windy as crap and you have to drive up huge hills getting back to our beloved lil St. George town. So, we are trucking along and than half way back to St. George Camron looks in his rearview mirror and notices
HMMM... the freaking changing table had FLEW OUT OF THE TRUCK... well, we were already more than halfway to his parents and we decided to drop the stuff off before we go look for our beloved changing table...
Well, we dropped it off and then in the meanwhile I am PISSED pergnancy hormones are Ragggggggggggggging and I am trying to keep my cool so I don't blow up at my husband the night we are flying home for Christmas and making it a wonderful peaceful night... But, oh no not after that... He than informed me he tied the changing table to the crib with some string... STRING people I mean come on driving from a town called HURRICANE and you used a measely piece of string to tie our beloved babies furniture in a truck with...
supposedly that is ALL the guy had to use when we picked it up and Camron being so smart and all didn't decide to inform me about his decision because we could have stopped at a Wal-Mart 2 blocks down the road and get something to tie it down properly!
ANYWAYS, back to my lil rant... we are back trucking along on our way BACK to Hurricane after this disaster and than what do we see on the side of the road??!?! On this side of the road is basically driving up a mountain side basically and wind is gushing from BOTH sides of the road... Well, I spotted it and immediately start screaming turn around turn around there it is!!!! Well, we pulled off to the side of the road and it is STILL IN TACT my beloved changing table is STILL INTACT and than I flip it over too see ALL OF THE scratch marks ALL over the top of it I mean alll over and than while "WE" are carrying it back to the truck... Yes, (5 months pregnant me... Yes, I know I am dramatic, but it makes it good....) we notice a friggin' leg had fallen off our beloved peice of furniture... SO, now I am pissed wanting to cry because it was in immaculate condition and here it was still intact, but all mangled and torn to peices because of some lousy string not deciding to do it's job....
I didn't get any pictures of this disaster because it was so traumatic, but trust me I will get some soon and post because I am not exaggerating about it...
Needless, to say it's going to work out we will find out a way to make all 4 new legs to match and hopefully somehow buff out the scratches, but this story is hilarious now looking back on it, but at the moment I was pissed at anyone who even thought about laughing about it because I was so excited to have furniture for my sweet and precious little girl... But, it's all good now.
