This civic drove us as we moved from Oregon to Texas to Colorado to Pennsylvania. It was car transported to Arizona where it endured the heat for 3 years and then was car transported to Washington where we live today. It was our main family car for over 6 years and Scott's work car for the other 6. It has been very reliable and a pleasure to drive. But we never expected to have it for 12 years. It hit 100,000 a few months ago and was starting to show signs of wear so we replaced it with a 2009 Hyndai Sonata.
We stuck with the color silver because it is our favorite. This car has lots of cool features like a clicker for the doors and trunk, a usb drive that connects to the radio for convenient listening to conference talks, and that new car smell. Here is a picture of our Civic and Sonata side by side.
We are hoping this car will be as fun and reliable as the Civic was for the next 10 years.Today I am thankful that:
*my kids all love me as their mother despite my imperfections
*I got a new calling at church to serve with the young women over Holly's class
*I got to watch another fun season of the Amazing Race with Scott

Yeah!!!! What a great car you had! Think about all the great memories in those 100,000 miles and all the fun memories you'll have with the new car! Enjoy it!!!!
how fun to have a new car...that was always a fun day when mom and dad would decide to upgrade! We'd all go for a drive and just sit in the new seats and think we were so lucky (even though none of them were ever really brand new) Have fun and enjoy the nice smooth ride.
