dallin vs the radiator


today i'm bragging about my awesome fiance dallin. he's seriously the best!

this past week, i took my car into the shop and found out that i needed a new radiator. the repair was really expensive and i was worrying about it, but it needed to be done. well dallin talked to his dad and we decided that we should try to do it ourselves. we found a place that would repair the radiator if we could get it in and out of the car.
so thursday afternoon i drove up to dal's house and we got to work. about 4 hours later with grease, coolant, and freon in our hair, we were done! i was really impressed with us and the next morning, we dropped the radiator off at the repair shop and then dallin drove me down to work.
he called me on my lunch break and said that he was picking up the radiator. i was tired just thinking about putting it back in the car. i figured it would be harder than taking it out, but it needed to be done, and it would save a lot of money, so i was happy to put the work in.
about 2 hours later, dal text me and said he was all done! he'd got the radiator in and all hooked up!
(and i felt a little silly. i'm pretty sure he was just indulging me by letting me help take it out since he put it back in in half the time, hahaha.)
so instead of being a $400 repair, it cost us only $150.
i'm so grateful to him to taking time out of his busy day to really help me out. not everyone would do that!

but stay back girls. he's mine! :)
