BJ's sweet ride!

We finally sold the Caprice. I know my homeboy will be sad, but he'll get over it! BJ, being the practical man that he is, thought we needed this car during the gas spike a while back. I was pregnant with J.R. and our Suburban is a gas hog. He thought we should have a more economical car for all SIX of us to ride in (it had 2 bench seats), especially on our frequent trips to Portland and Tacoma. It was uncomfortable before J.R. was around, then even more so with his carseat between Beege and I. We have a few very funny memories in that rig...one that is just too embarrasing to share. BJ also received more thumbs up in that car from fellow homeboys while driving in Portland. Once on our way to Portland a man gave us his name and number wanting us to sell him our car! He pulled up next to us in the Burger King parking lot and said,"Excuse me sir, I want that car." I thought "you've got to be kidding!"

Then there was the time BJ went to one of our local coffee drive-thrus (owned by friends) and Jamie Kline who was working at the time told BJ "that car works for you, you can pull it off." BJ said "thank you...I think!"

We bought the car right before Grace Anne (Isaac and Amy's 2nd baby) was born. We drove the car down to Portland to see her and while there Isaac took a picture of us in the car and "doctored" it up a bit. (No we never had 22 inch wheels on it!)

After realizing this car sitch wasn't working, we bought a minivan last spring. BJ drove the car for a little while longer, then loaned it out a couple of times to friends in need of transportation. We finally had the time to get this thing sold. I am sure there will be many more car adventures being married to BJ. :)
