Happy 7th Anniversary to us

Wow I cannot believe it has been seven years since I married the love of my life. Our life has been an adventure that I know will never be forgotten. Some parts of that adventure not so great but other parts of it I would not trade for anything ever. I am so blessed to have James as my eternal companion.

Here are just a few things we've caught on camera (ignore the fact that there are no pics from 03 or 04, we didn't own a digital camera until 05).

New Car

I have wanted a Hyundai Santa Fe for quite a while. We really didn't think it would be so soon, and we didn't think we would buy new again. But back in June we bought a brand New 2008 Santa Fe, with all the bells and whistles. Really we didn't need all the bells and whistles but we wanted the third row seat and they are hard to come by.
We were only going to be able to get $500 on a trade for my Elantra. We felt $500 was a slap in the face so, we proceeded to sell it ourselves. It was actually was not as stressful as we first thought it would be. We were able to sell it in less than a week for only $100 less than we were asking (the guy had cash on him). Micaela loves the car, and thinks she will drive it when she is old enough. It is also very popular among Micaela's friends. I know you're thinking "It's popular with 3 and 4 year olds, yeah right?" but it really is. If I have Micaela's friends in the car they act as if it is a roller coaster, complete with Wees!! It is a lot of fun!
