The Ride

So, since having a baby William and I had been feeling pretty cramped in our little Ford Focus. It was a nice car, but the back seat and trunk were both pretty small. The car seat barely fit in one and the stroller barely fit in the other (guess which we put in which). So, we've been shopping around for something new, but we've been pretty picky about it. We didn't have a car payment, and were loathe to pick one up. So, we were basically holding out for something bigger, something cheap, and someone who would offer us a good trade in on the ford focus.



As fate would have it, William found just that when he was out searching last Saturday. (Did you know that on the last day of the month dealers are desperate to get cars off the lot?) We got a GREAT deal on this:





(not actually vehicle. just like actual vehicle.)



We L.O.V.E. it. Mock me if you will for having a mini-van - but I can fit your car in my car. And watch DVDs. It pretty much rocks.

No making fun of the van - I think they're awesome! The first time I loaded Cash into and out of a friend's van I was very impressed. I am super jealous :)

Welcome to the minivan club! You will be thanking heaven for that DVD player for years to come. I promise. :)

But seriously, go you! it's nice to have the right tools for your family *whatever* those might be. We just bought a subaru hatchback to fit our giant dog!
