Our Suburban

It has been a long three months of searching for just the right vehicle. We finally had enough money saved to purchase our new car with cash, a method we learned in Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University. We drove to Segoville, Plano, Killeen, and San Antonio. We prayed each time before seeing the vehicle that God would give us complete peace if we were supposed to get the vehicle or walk away.

Finally Labor Day weekend we found a great deal on a 2001 Chevy Suburban. It wasn't perfect with no flaws but it was perfect for us, and listed at $1,000 less than other vehicles we had found. We now have enough room in one vehicle to carry all three children, and then some. This is our first vehicle with leather seats, and among other added features there is a TV. That will come in handy on long trips.

We are so thankful God provided us this vehicle and that, although it was hard at times, we were patient and waited for His perfect timing.
