Drumroll Please...

drumroll....Anyway, it's true! For those of you out there who ever heard Chris talk about the one vehicle that he would NEVER own--it's finally happened (tear): We own a mini-van! These past few days have been pure joy for me.
Some of my favorite things about it: 1, wide open SPACE. 2,One does not break into a sweat as soon as they climb inside. 3, the doors slide open. 4, Dillan can climb in on his own. 5, the air-conditioning is spectacular; and 6, the gas-gauge doesn't openly mock me and make me angry.
Chris may not admit to it, but he enjoys driving it too. It's wicked smooth.
So we've joined the mini-van owners clan that is our ward, and I'm considering some family-ish stickers to be placed on the rear window like everyone else has. Fine, I'm a conformist, but I'll be different. Yes, I vow to WASH my vehicle on a weekly basis as well as a bi-weekly vacuuming. Hey, I like driving a clean car, why can't everyone else?



And voila, our 2006 Honda Odyssey EX-L. It's like manna from heaven.

YEAH!!! I love it! But then again, I never said I wouldn't ever own one. I actually REALLY like the Toyota Sienna's. Like you said-smooth. Congratulations on your entrance into the "family mobile" club.

Get the stickers that have stick figures of all your family members. And get one for the dog you will someday own too! Ha
