Great White Way

Meet Trailblazer

Tonight, since we had to return the free rental vehicle to Enterprise that we'd been using since our Jimmy was hit, we hauled the entire family off to the Jasper car lots to look at replacement vehicles for the Jimmy. To look, mind you. An hour later we left those very lots as new car owners (well, not brand new, but new to us anyway). Hey, when you need a vehicle, you need a vehicle! Needless to say, our insurance (not that of THE LOSER, I might add, who ultimately had none) finally came through and sent us a check.

Did you notice the color? Yup. White.

We never plan to buy white vehicles, but somehow it always ends up that way. Why is white always the best deal? White Jimmy, white mini-van, now white Trailblazer. Even our house is white!

Oh, well, it feels good to put this entire fiasco behind us and move forward. Erik is happy with his new vehicle, and I'm simply glad he took care of business so quickly AND that I was able to entertain the kiddos while he did so. (Even though Hudson did poop while inside the dealership!). In all, it was a productive evening capped off with a celebratory visit to McDonald's.

We will miss you, Jimmy!

Disclaimer: The Chevy Trailblazer pictured above isn't actually our vehicle; we won't take possession of it until Friday, so I just grabbed this one off Google images. ;)

It only seems right that your Prince Charming would have a white horse...I mean Trailblazer. :)
