One year ago today.....
On this day at about this time last year being the owner of a new Camaro was just a dream, one that involved me getting on the Chevy website daily and building my "dream". At lunch that day I got a call from my husband asking me to meet him at the dealership at 2 that afternoon because he needed a ride home that his truck was not running right and they were needing to keep it overnight. So after arguing with him for a few mins about leaving work 4 hrs early to pick him up 40 mins away from where I work I finally gave in. I was MAD!!! HOWEVER a few hours later when I arrived at the dealership my madness went away and was overcome by pure joy, and the well known permagrin
 as I walked around the corner of our dealership to be greeted by my family and all the employees of the dealership along with a BEAUTIFUL 2010 IOM Camaro SS and I was handed the keys!! I couldn't believe it! It was MINE!! ALL MINE!! And to this day the  has done nothing but grow for that beautiful Camaro!! And of course for the worlds greatest husband!! Seven months of secrecy from everyone including my kids who can't keep a secret! Kuddos to them!!HAPPY 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO ME AND MY CAMARO!! May there be many many more!!

Congrats on the Anniversary Camaroluver! Your wonderful story reminded me of something that I almost overlooked..........so in homage this Evening the bride and I will take a short road trip to our favorite place that makes and serves homemade ice cream and celebrate two weeks of adorning Camaro owership. I'll have an extra dip on mine for you .

 I let my wife drive my car yesterday and she tore it up.  She said it'll be a while before she drives it to work or anywhere for that matter. It's really my car, but it's for all of us. Very cool of him to surprise you with one of your own.

Well he called me at lunch time (11 or so) I had to "pick him up"(the hubby) at 2 so yeah it took me a few hrs to get there so to speak. BELIEVE me had I known what I was really picking up I would have been there in a blink of an eye! LOL! Thanks everyone, and congrats on all your Camaro anniversarys that have come or coming soon! Donna: It is very possible to love the car more everytime you drive it, I know I sure do!
