Finding a Home for a Car
This past week we have been shopping for a car. It has taken quite a bit of patience, but we finally got one! It is a white 2007 Chevrolet Malibu... the same car that Anthony had before the accident, but five years newer.

Obituary for Malibu
On March 9, 2009 our Chevy Malibu was laid to rest. It had been over a year now since I, Alison Brown, had first stepped into that precious vehicle. Anthony had been driving on highway 78 when an idiotic lady pulled out from a side street. She claims she was trying to beat the traffic, but Anthony hit her car. Luckily Anthony was not injured, just a little sore, but the car was a different story. It had been damaged on the front passenger side, the hood, the bumper, and maybe even the frame underneath. Both airbags were deployed and it was towed away Wednesday morning.
When the car was first purchased in 2002 it was used as a missionary car. Driven by young teen boys it was driven rough, but had been kept up very well. Only a short time after did Anthony's brother, Lawrence, buy it when he returned from his mission. Anthony bought the car from his brother about a year or so later and had treated it like his own ever since. We have went on many dates, and vacations with this car. It has made it across the country many times as Anthony has traveled to and from school. It has been good to us. We have shared some precious times with that car and it will be missed.
It is sad saying goodbye to a car.

Implants and Invitations
Thursday I took Anthony to the dentist again to get his 2nd implant. Well not another one, its the same tooth... Let me explain. The first time he got his implant something went wrong. The screw that was in his jaw (I know, disgusting) came loose... or at least I think this is what happened. So he went through a whole week of pain.... Poor guy! He went back to the dentist and the figured out what was wrong so they pulled it back out. He had to wait two more weeks for it to heal to get another implant. This time I was informed that there was no way he could mess this one up, it is really down in there. So keep your fingers crossed for him that all will go well!
On other news, that same day my invitations came! So I left Anthony hoping that he would get some sleep while I was gone(and he did get a little nap), and went to pick them up from Party City. They turned out great! My mom and I have been stuffing them and addressing them all day... literally ALL day. Jeff and Carie and Anthony came over and helped us stuff them and get them all, well a big chunk of them, ready to mail off. Thanks you guys!
