Our New Toy

Today we had plans to tear off more paper and stain another window or two, but first John had to make a phone call for a toy we looked at last night. They would meet us at 10:00 so he could test drive it, he was already convinced it was ours so a test drive would be the final decision. We were owners by 10:30 and spent the day bombing around in our new Jeep (no work done today).

We first talked about buying a Jeep on June 24th 2003 at about 2:30 pm, the conversation is still very fresh in my mind. I didn't want John to buy a motorcycle so we decided to look for a Jeep, our kids were getting older, we were moving Lynn from one of her college apartments to another one and discussing buying a Jeep on the way home, our lives were great and our family was secure. Then about 5:30pm our plans came to a screeching halt - our granddaughter made her surprise entrance into our lives and turned our plans upside down. With every crisis we meet head on together the stronger we are. So now 5 years later Miss El has both of us wrapped around her little finger, our family is wonderful and we're Jeep owners.

Life is Good!
