Good ol' camry

When Weston and I got married my parents so graciously gave us this car so that we could have two cars. I have to be honest. I wasn't excited, but I was grateful. Then I grew to really like this car. I loved that it was small and I zipped around in it everywhere and parking was great. I hate parking big cars. Then Haylee came along and I didn't really feel like this was a very good family car. It doesn't have the soccer mom feel to it. But nonetheless we kept on driving around in it, Haylee and I. I can't tell you how many cheez it's, graham crackers, fruit loops, fish crackers, cheese sticks, and dum dums I have cleaned out of this car. I just vacuumed it out on thursday and turns out that was the last time. Friday I took it in to get checked and the diagnosis was that it's time for a new car. As my sister Katie loves to say, we ran it to the ground. This car got Haylee and I around to a lot of places, most often Target, and she ran great for us. We even loved to blast our music, roll down the windows and cruise in it. We looked good in it but it's time for a new ride. What should we get???

Way to run it to the ground!
Congrats!! That is quite an accomplishment.

Now, I finally know what it means to run a car to the ground.

I have lots of fav cars to recommend, but none of them are very practical.

Good luck with the big decision
Can't wait to hear what you get.

:( Good bye lil Camry! I think you and Haylee should rock an '87 Camero. And blast White Snake and Def Lepard on your way to Target. Yea baby.
