Wedding

Last Friday was Elden's brother Dale's wedding. A lot of Elden's family came to visit, and we were able to spend a lot of time with everyone. It was fun, since I've not really spent much time with any of them. So now I feel like I know the family a little better.

I don't think we got ANY pictures of Dale and Stephanie, but we got some of the rest of the family-but not that many-so here they are.

WOO HOO!!!

I JUST PAID OFF MY CAR!!!!!!
Once upon a time (in 2006), I decided I wanted a new car. I was SURE I wanted a Honda, so I went and test drove some Accords and the place I was at, had a cute little Volvo. My dad used to have a Volvo that he had for like 30 years, and I thought I should test drive some of those. So I convinced my little brother Dan to go with me to look at the Volvo dealership, and we test drove 2 cars. An S40 (which Dan loved) and an S60...that I loved! I decided THAT was the car I wanted. I was close to buying the one from the dealership, but it was a little more than I had anticipated spending. So...one of my roommates from college had just bought her car on Ebay, so I decided just to look. I did...and I found this little 2004 turbo engine beauty with hardly any miles on it for CHEAP (considering it's a volvo)!
So I showed my dad, he said looks good....and I bought it. So I flew down to Phoenix to pick it up from the dealer, and drove it home. And have loved it ever since!
