Meet Eugene...

Today we became owners of a 2004 Volkswagen Jetta GLS 1.8Turbo.  We have looked long and hard for a good car and we hope this one will serve us well.  Madalyn's favorite thing about the car is the heated leather seats so she will not freeze on the way to seminary!  It feels weird to have three cars in the house! 

The girls have named the car Eugene.  I am not a fan of the name, but there is a good story behind its name.  Eugene is the "real" name of Flynn Ryder.  Flynn Rider takes Rapunzel on many adventures in Tangled.  Just like this car will take our girls on many adventures.  I asked why we could not just name it Flynn Ryder and they said that the car needs to be named after Flynn's REAL name, Eugene.

So let me introduce you to Eugene (I prefer to call in Geno for short)!


The girl we bought this car from was the original owner and took really good care of this car.  She was so sad to sell it, but she had gotten a grown up car... BMW X5.  She gave us a card and a key chain from Kate Spade as a gift.  So sweet!  We promised we would take good care of it!
