Big Problems with a 2001 Sephia!!

Hi how is everybody? This is what happen and i could used all the input that i can get. I was driving the Sephia the other night and when i first started it there was a noise..Thought it was a just because it was cold.. Then there was a smell..Then the the heater started blowing out cold air.. Drove it a little bit more and the the 2 lights came on on the cluster: The Brake Light and the Battery light.. Then i just drove it home.. Today went and drove it and now there is 3 lights that are on The Battery light, The Brake light and now the AirBag light plus when i had the turn signal on the SpeedOmeter needle bounces in rythym of the turn signal!! What the h...?! Got it home and was checking under the hood and it just died on me.. Battery dead (i guess)And the radiator is boiling over..
I'm guessing its the alternator is bad and the thermostat is bad..
Am i right?


Thanks for any help..

You lost a belt...check to see if the belt from altenator to water pump is missing. I'd bet the house on it. Good luck.
