Dec. 10, 2007 - I got a new car!!!
Well....I thought I would just come and blog about the CUTE new car I got a couple of weeks ago!!! I really, really, really, really like it A LOT!! I have had a few cars in the past, but none of them have been really nice and it's such a blessing to have a nice car that is reliable and, well, did I mention that it's cute?! I will have to put pictures on here soon and then you will see what I mean and why I like my car so much! Jules says it's like candy on the inside and with the black and red interior and leather seats it's so true. We looked and looked for a car--for THE car. Julie and her husband, Anthony, were SUCH a help and it was truly such a blessing even if I thought they were too picky at times.;) We looked at and test drove SEVERAL cars and many of them were nice, but none of them were really great, which would have been fine. I would have been content with anything that was decent. We were just looking for something with as few miles as possible in our price range that didn't look like a granny car (no offense against granny cars, but that's just not what I was looking for) and didn't have any problems. It had to be reliable. One day Julie and I were out almost all day looking at cars. It was getting dark and we were getting ready to head home and we decided to have one last quick stop at a used car lot. They had a couple of cars that were close to our price range. One of them was a sweet red Daewoo Lanos with the cutest interior I've ever seen in a car. It was black and red with black and red leather seats and the paint job was so nice and shiny. And to top it off it had less than 46,000 miles on it. I fell in love. I heard music when I sat in it. I saw stars. It was sweet. I didn't really want to look at the other car they showed me. But I did. ;) We didn't get to drive it then because there were several cars around it they were going to be taking to an auction the next day so we decided to go back the next day to look at it again and to test drive it. I should also mention that I couldn't actually test drive any of the cars that day because, ummm, my driver's license had expired. So the next day we went and we looked at the Daewoo again and Jules took it for a spin. She said it was good! That evening I had to study for my driving test to take it the next day before we picked up the car. I HAD to pass. Thankfully I did pass and we picked up the Daewoo! Unfortunately Anthony had not been able to even see the car yet because of his work schedule, but he liked it! All the kids liked it as well and they were so cute ooohing and aaaahing over it. It's a car to ooh and aah over! We were all so amazed that God provided so wonderfully and we were celebrating! I am so grateful that the Lord provided and I am also so grateful for Julie and Anthony's help! Julie was such a blessing! She knows how to buy a car! The original pricetag on this car was $4999 and we paid $3700! She also got them to change the oil and get it inspected. And another extra blessing is that when we went to get it, it had 4 brand new tires! Praise God! We will try to get pictures of my little shiny red Daewoo soon and I will put them on here!

Hi Kristy, Just stopping by to say merry Christmas! I hope you had a good one. That is so great that you got a nice car and that everything came together perfectly for you. I bought my second car a couple years ago, and it's so nice having a reliable one that I don't have to worry about. Lol. My first car was on its last legs and kept breaking down on me. o_O Can't wait till you post a pic. :-)
Have a blessed day!
