Goodbye Envoy

Goodbye Envoy.  You were a good Envoy.  Thank you for all of the camping trips, long weekends, trips to Fargo, your assistance in moving, the grocery runs, and just plain being awesome.
Not so sad to pay $120 every time to fill you up.  GAS HOG.

We made the tough decision to say adios to the beloved Envoy.  (Actually, I had no problem selling the thing but Dane LOVED his Envoy).   We sold it on CraigsList.  One inquiry and DONE.  (We've sold two other things on there...it rocks.)  One little problem.   We didn't have a clue what we wanted to buy after we handed over the keys.
But, we had a list.....
-good gas milage
-reliable
-roomy
-leather
-sunroof

We car shopped EVERY night for a week straight.  We went to EVERY car lot (some of them twice) in a 20 mile radius of our home.  We took a Ford Edge home.  We LOVED it.  I mean LOVED it.  Got buyer's remourse before we even bought it.  We ended up with a Buick Regal.  We love it. 

This car shopping ordeal landed right in the middle of our deck project.  Once I figure out how to get pictures from my phone to this blog I will show you what this beauty of a deck looks like.
Now, we haven't finished it.  Dane was sent to Bismarck on flood duty for an indefinite amount of time.  So, until he gets home it will wait for us!

Happy weekend friends and family!
