Drivers Wanted.

I don't know when I last saw Pete so excited for something. Luisa happened to mention, a month or so ago, that her landlady had a bus in her backyard. She had already gotten rid of one and was looking to unload the other. I mentioned it to Pete and we have not stopped pestering Luisa since. Last night all his wildest dreams came true and he waited on the front porch until he saw his next years worth of frustration and joy coming down the street on the flatbed. He absolutely cannot wait to pimp this ride. We are all excited to ride in this baby once it's done. It's funny that Pete and I are both nostalgic having grown up with this car in our families ourselves. The kids however think it's cool that it's like the car in Little Miss Sunshine. I hope we someday have the chance to drive our own Olive to California to compete. I think I will pull out my Superfreak album today.
So this is it. A new Volkswagen in our family. We could not be more delighted.
