Saying Goodbye...Saying Hello

Saturday afternoon was an eventful day for me! I have been really wanting an SUV for the last year or so and completely have had my heart set on a Honda Element! Last week we went and took one for a test drive because I had never actually driven one and then it was all over with! I was 100% in love! I went home and planned on saving for the next few months and getting one when I graduate nursing school but Saturday morning I woke up and my dad was like well you want one lets go get one! The financing was a great deal through the month of February and this is the last year Honda is making the Element so before my choices dwindled we decided now was a good time to buy! I was so excited to finally be getting one and it was exactly what I wanted...but then I had to say goodbye to Betsy and that was a sad moment! 
 Betsy all cleaned up and looking pretty!
 Saying goodbye and giving Bets one last love!
I have had some really great moments over the last 6 years with Betsy! Betsy was my first brand new car and only had 5 miles on her the day I drove her off the car lot! She took me on my very first roadtrip with friends to Cheyenne Wy for Frontier Days Concerts...she drove me faithfully to the U of U for 4 years with no trouble...expect for that one moment when she lost control on a snowy winter day and we slammed into a curb on 13th East...Betsy blasted my favorite songs on tough days....and we rolled around the valley with the windows down on nice summer nights! We traveled from the southern Utah desert to the high Wasatch mountains to Bear Lake and down to Las Vegas and up to Yellowstone! I will always have a special place in my heart for her and I hope she goes to a great home and is taken care of and loved the way she should be! 
Now Meet Billy! 
Isnt she beautiful!? 
I cant wait to travel the country and go on great big adventures with her! I have a lot in store for us! 

I am such a happy girl rolling around in my brand new wheels! :)
