Good-Bye Crapturn

It's official the Saturn is gone!  Scott was in a little fender bender a week ago and we decided that it was time to get rid of the Saturn.  It was a tiny 3 door car that needed to go.  We never took it anywhere.  Scott only drove it to and from work. And with Gabe's car seat in there it was very cramped.

Here is the only picture I could find of the car.  I completely forgot to get of picture of Scott saying good-bye.  I think he was even more excited to see that thing go than I was. 
We loaded Gabe up on a Friday night to go for a test drive of the new car.  Scott loved it and by the time we could start the paperwork on it, Gabe was super close to meltdown.  I knew he wouldn't make much longer and I had to be there to sign all the paperwork with Scott.  So we packed him up and said we would be back right when they opened in the morning.

We arrived back Saturday morning and started the whole process of buying a car.  I think this time was much easier than the last time we bought a car.  The actual paperwork part didn't take too long, it's always that credit report that seems to take the longest.  Even if you aren't worried, it makes you worry just knowing they have control of what happens.

Everything went well and we walked away with a 2013 Nissan Altima.  It's a great car with very low miles on it.   We had to take the car for a quick test drive before the rest of the busy day started.  Of course we drove over the Bridge( I really hate crossing bridges)  to St. Chuckles to Picasso's for a coffee and show it off to Michelle who was working down the street.


Gabe was totally over the whole thing by this point.  Yay for a new car!
