First car

My oldest baby turned 16 in June and has been saving his money for a car. Andy offered to split the cost with him and now this is in our driveway.

We wanted to surprise him when he got home from his running camp in North Carolina but I let the cat out of the bag when I texted Andy the picture below while he was at the airport picking up Austin. I had no idea Austin had Andy’s phone

So he knew before he got home but was thrilled anyway, who wouldn’t be?

It’s a stick shift but he learned it pretty quick. We have been having a lot of fun with it- the girly loves it

Austin has worked hard this summer with school (he took a math class to get ahead) and working for a local contractor.

I am happy he got to spend a week with his chapel hill team and enjoy the nc mountains.

And now summer is quickly wrapping up. Time to get our house plans settled and get this show on the road!

    I think Andy was first in love with a red Jeep that belonged to one of his sister’s boy friends in high school. Looks like he passed that on to Austin. It looks great!!
