Real Texans Now(we got a pickup)


We had so much fun Tuesday.  As you long time visitors to psalm139verse14 blog know, we have driven the same old(yet perfectly reliable and wonderful) vehicles a long time.  We try to follow Dave Ramsey's financial plan(but don't do that great!).  So, Mike's driven a great Accord sedan for 11 years.  It has over 200,000 miles on it and works perfectly.  He's been saving and wishing for an extended cab truck.  Saturday he was with the boys at Target.  Driving in the parking lot he spotted "it".  The heavens parted and shone on this used, but in pristine condition beauty!  The driver was a mechanic and I think we could eat off the engine,it is so clean. So, we prayed and talked budget.  Tuesday he bought a new to him truck and it is gorgeous!  The kids went wild when he drove it home.  It's been 8 years since we purchased a car.  Mike's face was pure joy :)  The next morning, Carter opened the front door and stopped.  He said "Wow, I can't believe something so nice is in our driveway."  We are really having fun!
