Bye Bye!

Last night we said good bye to our black Grand Prix! I got this car when I was in college from my cousin and then Aaron took over when we bought our first car together! It treated us well, but the time had come to say good bye! Aaron listed it on Craigs list and within the first hour we got 2 phone calls and an email...by the end of the day we had about 7 phone calls and 3 emails, or something like that. Definitely the way to sell a car or anything for that matter. Aaron is looking around the house to see what else he can make some money on!
Anyways...the guy...well more like a boy...came to pick it up last night and was going to brave driving it home. It was recommended to us not to drive it, but he changed the oil and he was headed back on his 2 hour trip home. We prayed that he would make it.....haven't heard and probably won't...I guess that is good news!
Throughout the night Mackenzie had made a couple comments about not wanting it to go, but it never occurred to me that should would be that disappointed. The moment he started backing it out she started bawling....and I mean she was really crying....sad crying! She said she wanted us to save it for her to drive when she got bigger! We validated her feelings of sadness, but inside I was laughing that she was so upset by this. She hardly ever even rode in it! She did get over it, but on our side of things....we are so happy to have our whole driveway back!

Nichole, Was that our old Grand Prix? I loved that car. I can't believe it was still running. =D
