1st Big Purchase:

Well I did it!!! I made my very first car purchase without the help of Robbie or my parents. After a lot of talking with Robbie. We decided that it was time I try something new on my own. I did a lot of research and shopping around locally. But in the end went to Edmonton for the final purchase.(saved about $4000 going to the city) The photo to the right is the backend of the car. I purchase a Ford Focus sedan SE 2007. Pitch Black in colour. It a fully loaded SE. (sorry Bruce!!) While seeking out the right deal I met Blaine the salesman at City Ford in Edmonton. After letting him know what I wanted to buy and many many phone calls back and forth. On Monday morning he called with the final #'s I need before it was a done deal. We were to go in to Edmonton on Tuesday to pick up the car but as you all know me. I couldn't wait that long. So we headed there yesterday at noon. Once all the paper work was all complete Blaine handed me the keys to my NEW CAR!!!! wahoooo was I excited now

This is Blaine handing me the key and showing me the car!










I tried to get Robbie to have fun too by driving the car. What a wonderful man he is sharing this with me. It was hard to get him to drive the new car. He kept insisting that its was for me to enjoy. In the end I did get him driving it. I think letting him know what a great CD player the car has did it though. Once behind the wheel. This is pretty much the last time I saw him this close besides the driveway when we got home. I asked him if we was going to wait for me to catch up to him. He asked where I was and I told him look in the rearview mirrors for the yellow dot. Not to my shock did he say that it was not there. Well there you go....you all know who has the lead foot in this family.
