Bessie

I bought my 1998 Nissan Sentra "Bessie" on July 4, 1999. As of September 13, 2013 I no longer own Bessie! That's right - we sold the little black car yesterday. Bessie was such a great car and had almost 189,000 miles. Definitely a great car for all these years, but too small to get Henry's stroller in the trunk.

Here is our new car that we bought two weeks ago. It is a 2013 Nissan Altima. It is so smooth to drive and has a lot more room for all of Henry's things. Charles and I are still getting used to the start button and no keys.

Thursday morning I was greeted by this note made out of almonds by Charles. I thought it was cute!

Henry went on his first plane trip last week. He did great on the flight. Here he is at the airport waiting to board the plane. He is crawling now and getting into everything!

It was great talking to you today. Happy Birthday! I love your new car . . . . I hope it will be as faithful as Bessie was.

I LOVE your new car!! I am sure it is super fun to drive. It was so fun spending time with you while you were in Utah. Henry is just the sweetest little thing and such a nice boy. I love you guys!
