A so sad goodbye....

Our family has suffered a great loss.
The pink car is gone.
To a better home.
A home with mechanical talents.

I had to break the news to Kayla this past week. Not so fun for me. Or her.

We bought this car in 1998 and Robert drove it during his doctorate (he is obviously a manly man - it was just as pink then). Kayla bought it when she was 16. (no - we don't believe in giving our kids a car... she paid for it) Then Kayla drove it for 5 years until her mission.

It's so strange to not see that cute pink car in front of our house.
But it had a good life... and good memories...

34 miles to the gallon!

We drove Kayla to the MTC in it. Crowded, but I wanted to be crowded before saying goodbye.

No one ever got a ticket in that car. Probably because it wasn't my car.

It was always dirty. Again, probably because it wasn't my car.


Here's a photo of the day Kayla got her car... back when I used to scrapbook.
