A New Addition To The Family!!!


We purchased a new car today!!! OK...it was new in 2003, but it is new to us and we love it!!! We looked all afternoon yesterday and after 5 hours of looking and almost settling for a different car...we found this 2003 Volkswagen Jetta. It is in great condition and has a manual transmission...which is what we drove in Russia and really love!!! This is our first car to purchase as a couple! When we got married, in 2000, Keith drove an Explore, that would not even make it to the junk yard before we left for Russia. I had a great Jeep Cherokee, that my parents had given me for College Graduation. I drove it for 10 years and loved it! Of all the things we had to let go of when we moved to Russia, I was most sad that I could not take it with me! Keith and I have very few possessions that are not borrowed or given to us and have not made such a huge purchase in our entire married lives...sooo we are so thrilled with the new addition to our family and pray that it serves us well for many years!!!
