Goodbye to our little Scion

A couple of months ago, Todd got hit in our little Scion.  He was stopped at a light when the car behind him rammed into him, and pushed him into the car in front of him.  It was very scary for him...and sad for our car.  Luckily Todd wasn't injured and the lady who hit him had car insurance.  Such a blessing for us!

Here are a few pictures of our car...




Sad, huh?  The insurance gave us $6300 for our car, which we felt was very fair, since we've had the car for over 3 years, and we paid $7100 for it at the time.  




We looked around for a few days for a car replacement, and eventually found this little Mazda3.  I found it online and we paid $6400 for it.  Another incredible blessing.  It's a 2012 and has 68,000 miles on it.  (That's 6 years newer than our Scion was and with 10,000 less miles.)    

Todd loves his new car.  It's a zippy little thing.  And hopefully it will last us a long time.  


We've never had this nice (or new) of a car before!  It looks pretty sharp parked next to the cars in the church parking lot, and holds its own quite well.  HA! :) 

Goodbye little Scion.  We will miss you! :(
