It's time to say goodbye to our good ol' Sequoia. This car has driven Todd to work, taken us on fun vacations to Ruidoso and Utah, and many trips to the mountains, across town and to school. After 10 years, a big decision was made to trade it in at almost 100,000 miles and for Todd to take the plunge back in to truck ownership. His first love was his baby blue Toyota truck he purchased after we started dating. He worked so hard to buy that truck...and was so proud of it. It ran well for 10 years and we bought the Sequoia because, with 3 boys, we needed a car that could hold more than one carseat. When thinking back, it hardly seems possible that we have had it 10 years. Time flies when you're having fun. Now, Todd has the chance to own a truck again and I know he will love it. It's dark blue and he got the deal he said he would get or wouldn't move on so it will be nice, but a part of the Schmitt history drove away for the last time today. Thank goodness we have lots of pics and memories. A car can be a special part of your life...this is proof.
Chris is the last kid to take one last ride in here. Todd usually drives him to school when he leaves for work, so I will title this photo "The Last Ride" and if it seems a little silly that I'm crying as I type this, well, then I guess it is and I'm okay with that.
