Goodbye to Superman
Two days ago we sold "Superman", the Jeep. It was a sad day indeed, but we needed a new car for our growing family, and regrettably, it had to be done. We have had so many great memories with this car, it seemed a shame not to pay some kind of tribute to it, somehow. So here I sit, blogging, recalling all the memories this vehicle has been a part of.
This is the car that I met Jake in, in High School. "Your Jake with the Jeep, right?" I said to him when he introduced himself for the first time in Acappella. Superficial I know, but I loved that car the first time I saw it - just like the cute boy who drove it!
It's been through countless drives to Squaw Peak (no, NOT for the reason y'all are thinkin'!), long talks, wonderful friends, had impecable detailing by Dad Hansen, been off roading in the Utah mountains and has seen my husband (and I) through many years of life. Many of you will laugh at this, but we even had our first kiss in that car!
So, alas we say goodbye. Goodbye Superman, and may your new owners be as good to you and appreciate you as much as we did!

It's pathetic, but I'm a little emotional about you guys getting rid of the jeep. Good times in that jeep back in the day. Love you guys!
I am so sad to say goodbye to our little "Zuzy". She is been a good car for us also. We had our first kiss in our "Suzy". What great memories. Love ya Erin
And don't forget that "Superman" shuttled me to and from my seminars when I stayed with you guys quite a few times...
I will miss him too!
It is always a little bitter sweet when we trade in the old memories for future memories. I remember when we got rid of both our cars, the cars we dated in, went to school in, got married in, had our first baby etc... But, each new vehicle just like our homes have embedded great memories. I want to see picts of the new car!
Maybe these things DID happen in the car, you never know!!!
Endings are never fun. I don't know if I can see you guys in anything but a jeep. Goodbye Hansen car. :(
wait a second, you guys have another jeep?? Or is this a picture of your new car. I have no idea what is going on because I've never seen that car before. You guys are sneaky! I've just seen your white one. I agree on the nostalgia of cars though. It's hard to let go sometimes. :)
Aw- now who am I going to share a seat belt with? It's way more fun to intertwine seat belts and go for a ride than to have my own...bummer.
Yeah right...I know what happens on Squaw Peak...no matter what kind of protests you may make.
Jake I am sad for you :( but life keeps going. Bust of luck and I will add a sniffle for supperman willy(the jolly green Giant) will be sad also Chat later
