1994 Saturn

Well, this car was the first one we bought when we were poor college students and it has served us well. We went to bed last Saturday night with it parked in its usual spot. When we went out to go to church the next morning it was just gone. Someone stole our beloved Saturn! It has been hit 3 times since we have been married and paid for itself. It may not have air conditioning but, it got Dan to work every day and we have had NO problems with it for 3 years. Sad to say, the cops are still on the look out for our car. According to Levi, "the naughty men took our car. They are very naughty." We were shocked at first. How many people get there car stolen right in front of their house?! All keys accounted for. So needless to say we were on the lookout this week for a new car, and we found one! We were aiming to buy a Sienna in about 6-8 months, but this will do just fine!

Welcome to the family,

Mazda 5 2009

We now have room to grow with two more seats in the second row.

It is a mini mini van! As my brother in-law describes it, "If a mini-van and a Mazda 3 had a baby, this would be it." It drives like a sedan. It gets 27 HWY mpg and we got it with 14,800 miles on it. We feel like we got a sweet deal and feel very blessed. Dan went to work the next morning after buying it to find out that he got a raise for almost the amount every month we will be paying for the new car. I sure have a testimony of tithing and know that Heavenly Father knows us and blesses us in so many ways!

Added note: We paid extra to get a sweet car alarm on this car and went and bought a steering wheel club for our Corolla the next day!
