Another beetle of course!!! A Convertibuggy to be exact!! I know..I know..I complained and complained about my old beetle and all the trouble it gave me but hey, the car was almost 10 years old with over 90k miles on it! Of course it was going to give me trouble! I'm crossing my fingers that my new car won't give me trouble..at least for awhile :-) There were times when I considered getting something other than a beetle but I simply couldn't imagine myself driving any other car!
My convertibuggy marks the beginning of new chapter in my life. This is the first NEW car I've ever had! Not only that, it's the first AUTOMATIC car I've ever owned! I learned to drive with a stick shift and have owned nothing but stick shifts! I thought I was going to have a hard time adjusting to an automatic at first but not at all! Driving home from the dealership felt completely natural to me :-) I used to hate "new car" smell but now that the "new car" smell belongs to me, I LOVE it!!
I really have to thank my very wonderful hubby for getting the car for me. We were both in need of new cars and he insisted that I be the one to get the new car first. For those of you who have seen the car that Doug drives, you would know what a selfless act this was ;-) He really is the bestest husband a girl could ever ask for :-)
Goodbye Buggy :-(

Hello Convertibuggy :-)

D:

Hahaha!! I KNEW it! When I asked you yesterday if the surprise began with a "B", I knew there's was sumthang up your pretty lil white sleeve! ;) And DL Photography is SUCH a good photographer! :D
aww...I love it Trista! Hope you enjoy your new little buggy this weekend!
Love this post, I know how hard this was for you!!! I LOVE the new convertibuggy...congrats!
Kam and I were cracking up reading this post, because I was going to take the same picture of Kam hugging his old beat-up Saturn as the one that "DL Photography" took of you and your beloved Beetle..haha
By the way, is it the same dreamy Convertibuggy with the white leather seats you saw at the dealership? If so, Doug is truly truly altruistic...I bet he probably shed a tear when you picked up your new buggy, as he thinks back to his own car.
