Life Lesson #453

When backing up someones car, always check your rear view window; you may just end up backing the car into the side of your in-laws house (or into a canyon, as pictured below)!  

My poor husband (who I'm sure is cringing that I decided to post this story for everyone to see), accidentally reversed my parents car into the side of the house!  Well.. ..to say "side of house" is an exaggeration, but he did hit the gutter bending it into a new shape. 

Oh well... at least we were able to bend it back, with little aesthetic damage.  Good thing Bill and Marge had a few glasses of wine, before the accident happened, it really didn't bother them too much.  Besides the car didn't even have a scratch on it!

Life Lesson #452

If you find a screw on the floor, you shouldn't throw it away as it probably goes to something VERY important... like your refrigerator door.  

A few weeks ago Nick came home late from work and innocently opened up the refrigerator door and it literally fell off the hinges and onto the floor.  My typical self would have started yelling, but instead I grabbed my camera and took the below pictures.  Sometimes when life gives you lemons, all you can do is laugh and drink lemonade.

Nick - "Jenn what did you do to the refrigerator door?" 

OMG - the refrigerator door just came off!  Now what?

Keep in mind, this happened at around midnight, so waiting to deal with this in the morning wasn't an option!
