Cars

This actually happened last week. The week of Brecken's birthday. We were having a Monday morning like usual. I was getting the boys ready to go for a walk when Branson called. "Hey guess what- the car died," He informed me. We had two cars a few months ago. In Aug the black one died and would cost us $2500 to fix which is probably more that the car is worth. So I've just been going without a vehicle and Brans has been using the blue one for work. That Mon morning we was just driving out of the court parking lot in Salt Lake when it died on him. Poor guy.

His boss had to pick him up and get the blue car towed. (The blue car is actually his boss'- he just has been letting us use it for the past few years) Then his boss let Brans use his nice car while we started searching for a new one. We had already been planning on buying a new car when Brans got his raise in another month so it wasn't too much of a shock. At first I was thinking yay, this will be fun car shopping. By Wed I was wishing it was over. It's just a little stressful to have to buy a car in 3 or 4 days. Yikes.

Wed night we went and test drove three cars and found the one we liked. Thurs we called and began the buying process (it was a for sale by owner). We thought we'd be able to pick it up Thurs night but paperwork always takes longer than anticipated. Long story short (kind of) we finally were able to go pick it up Friday night. Here are a couple of pics, it's a 2006 Toyota Camry. Pretty sweet car!

This is the day after we got it. We were headed to a Halloween Party for Branson's Work. Yes, it is a leather interior- spoiled huh.
