unexpected response

Last fall my favorite car finally bit the dust.  There were lots of good memories with that car.  
Evan and I were hoping it would last until the spring so we could buy a new one...my parents graciously let us use their car.  Once began the adoption process that purchase was put on hold.  My parents then told us we could use it until "the wheels fell off".  :)  A huge blessing!
Yesterday, probably the hottest and most humid day of the summer, we tried to start the car after church... dead.  bleh... A church parking on a Sunday morning is good place to need a jump.  A very kind friend jumped our car and it started right away!  Success, it probably only needs a battery.  No big deal... of course that is not the case.  :/  We found out this afternoon that the alternator cable is shot and it will cost over two grand to fix it.  Not the best news, but a definite opportunity to see God provide.  Recently we have seen his faithfulness in such awesome ways it is almost a little exciting to see how he will provide!
Evan and I have had our share of car issues over the last couple years.   Each time the expense tends to weigh pretty heavy on us.  Tonght it was very different.  We aren't thrilled the car died, but we know that God knows our need and he will provide a way to answer that need.


Evan's sister also showed a little love... icedream and sprinkles!!
