I Love my Parents!!!


My parents surprised me yesturday after FINALLY getting my license with a brand new car!!

I had test driven the new Hyundai Tucson a couple months ago and absolutely LOVED it, but they kept telling me I had to wait until August or September for a new car. So yesturday my mom & I went tanning @ my uncle's house and we were chatting outside and all of a sudden he opens his garage and my dad drives out my car! Its royal blue just like the pic with black trim. They even put a big red bow on it like they have in thos Lexus commercials! But they even put a Carolina Girls license tag on the front and a USC Gamecocks license frame on the back. AND even better, my mom gave me an Ipod adapter for it too!! It caught me as a total surprise and couldnt ask for better parents!!!
