3 Word Sunday!!!



Today is Hanks Birthday and we took advange of the Cash for Clunkers. I had to drive the Van a few weeks ago and said the brakes did not work..well Hank drove it last week and realized that THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK!! Soo, we took it in and the caliber was broke and it need a new front brake system and a rear brake drum and 2 new tires. This would cost us atleast $1200.00 to fix and the Van is not worth that much!!! We decided to let it SIT till Hank got a job and just use the 1 car. Well, we thought the Cash for Clunkers went on for another month so we were HOPING Hank would hear about the job in Indy by then (either way would be nice). We went to pick it up for the repair place and the Honda dealer is on the other corner so we "stopped" to see what they had with good gas mileage..Well Guess What????
Hank got a NEW Car!!! A 2010 Honda Insight Hybrid. Great gas mileage and since it is Hanks Birthday and I bought him NOTHING we are saying this is his gift!!!! Happy Birthday Hank!!!
I LOVE how the put the CARS on the windows so no one trys to buy it..lol

Happy Birthday, Hank!!! Aren't Hondas awesome?

My husband bought me a Honda Accord, trading in my '94 Ford Ranger Truck. Now we have a Honda van and a Honda car... It's family time all the way!
