Bye Bye Old Car

Been meaning to do an update for May, but alas behind on pictures again...what's new?!
Well, the most recent thing that happened is we sold our Audi A6 wagon.  Considering it's age, and issues, we were unsure how difficult it would be to sell.  But, as always, if you price it right, it will sell eventually.  We kinda sat on it for a while, we had it cleaned up real good at the car wash, and then I thought it might help if we got it inspected.  So it seems like it took forever to sell, but really we only started advertising it a few weeks ago.  Anyway, the car is gone, and really it is bitter sweet.  I realized last night that I had driven that car for nearly one third of my lifetime!  Also, both kids came home in that car from the hospital, so there are some great memories with the car, and we will all miss it (although we won't miss the maintenance that comes along w/ a 15 year old car!!)  We were completely honest about all the issues it has with the couple that bought it, and they are going to be having a baby soon, so it's going to be a family car again!!  They drove a mini cooper, which Liam was super excited to see, esp. the pipes...he is pretty obsessed with the pipes on cars lately.  Anyway, the guy buying the car was nice enough to take this picture of us in front of the car.  As Rowan and Liam said that night 'Bye Bye old car'!

What a cute picture, it is hard to say goodbye to a family car, it kind of becomes part of the family.
