Oh Shit! It just locked itself!!!

Saturday we decided to go up to the cabin for a few hours. When we got there we unloaded the four wheeler, and I got Bridger out of the car, shut the doors, and handed him to Cole. Just as I did that the car locked itself with the keys inside it(our car has a mind of its own lately)...so there we are just the three of us, the four wheeler..no food, no diapers and no phone service...and not to mention that we were supposed to be home by five to go to a friends blessing barbecue.
Luckily Cole had his cell phone in his pocket and had grabbed the camera or we would not have these pictures to go with our story...We headed up to the ridge where we can sometimes get phone service hoping to call on-star to unlock our vehicle...on-star was no help being that we were so far off the main highway and they could not pick up a signal from our car...So we went into Camp Shalom which is the next canyon over and asked if we could use their phone being that ours was not working very well and kept dropping the calls...unfortunately their phone was not working..so....we headed to the other side of the mountain where Cole's aunt and Uncle have a cabin, hoping they would be there to help...

When we finally reached their cabin and found that they were there, we borrowed their car and went into Fairview to look for a lock-smith, and with the four dollars that I had in my back pocket I went to the gas station and bought Bridger a bottle of water and a bag of chips. We found a lock-smith and had him follow us back up to the cabin where Cole and the lock-smith then took the four wheeler into the thick trees and on the muddy road to the cabin where our car sat....
At last they unlocked the car and Cole came back for me and Bridger at Chris and Harveys cabin. By that time it was late and we were all starving so Chris made us dinner...(They were truly our life savers!) After we ate dinner we headed back to our cabin where our car was, we loaded the four wheeler and headed home..we did not get home until about ten o'clock. In the chaos of everything we actually had a good time riding the four wheeler, looking for deer, eating snow in the middle of June, and just spending time together in the peaceful mountains..

.....in some strange way we really enjoyed it...

That is the best story I've heard in a long time. And I'm glad you had the camera - the pics are cute. And the area where the cabin is is gorgeous! Thanks for the visit tonight. Between the visit and your blog update you've kept me entertained for a whole night, so I really owe you guys. Thanks!

Ash!
That is so funny and sad to hear your story. Your pictures of Bridger are so cute. Stratton is already showing me that he is stubborn so im sure it won't be long before he is like Bridger. ;)

We got his pics done at Sears. I had a friend go there and they turned out really cute. The lady that took them was special so I had to tell her what to do in every shot so they didn't look cheesy. Anyway, it was fun!
