Goodbye Jetta, Hello House

I had a pang of sadness when I sold Jetta yesterday- that car has been with me for six years... through lots of good times, all of college, even a month or two of high school, skiing many times, one scary "slow motion" wreck as we spun on ice in the canyon (remember Britt?!), I will miss the good gas mileage! And I will miss driving a stick shift. I will not miss the snow storms with her though :) Poor Jetta didn't get driven much since Max came along... but he did ride in her once or twice. Thanks Dad and Mom for the car those many years ago. It was just time for new things, such as appliances in the new house. Who would have known back then that's what I would sell her for? I must be getting old. Goodbye Jetta- we will miss you!!

It seems like there has been a lot happening lately- lots of changes and decisions, but I think that is all good! It makes you appreciate the good things you have in life. We are excited about our new house- it should be done in 4-5 months. I am the most excited for Max to have a house to roam around in, and a yard most of all!!! (Even if it is only dirt for a while!) But I realized he will never remember the condo- the place he spent his first year and a half of life. I will miss the condo in some ways, this is the only place me and B have lived... but we are ready for the next stage in life--- whoooo hoooo

The hole was dug yesterday! Here is our prized patch of dirt.
