The New Baby!

Well as of November 10, 2008, I am the proud owner of a car payment! As most of you know I have never been able to enjoy this responsibility. My Jr year in H.S my parents bought me a cute little car. It was a 97 Mazda Protege'. It was perfect. Married, still perfect. 1 kid, still perfect. 2 kids...eeeh, still pretty good. Now mind you this was not a full size car it was a compact. So when when little Killi was born we turned into a sardine can. The 3 kids were packed in there pretty tight with poor Jackson in the middle seat between 2 very large car seats. He was a TROOPER! So after the car needing about everything replaced and constant trips to the mechanic (and 133,372 miles), we decided to go "look". Yeah it didn't work, we came home with this beauty! Rich calls it our Mormon Assult Vehicle. But we LOVE it. In case anyone was wondering...NO I don't think I will be able to give up my baby. She will stay lovingly in the parking spot next to her sister!
