Spider-VAN

Yes, it is true. Jake and I are owners of a minivan. I cant believe it! It is the one thing that I said I would never do in my lifetime... AND LOOK AT ME! I am surprisingly handling it well. It is so nice to be able to fit all of the kids in the car and still have room to pick up a couple of friends. The kids LOVE it. They like to tell everyone over and over that they have a van now. Brooks told me while I was driving him to school today that when he is older, he wants a van. I laughed because do you know any teenager that WANTS to drive a van? I am going to hold him to that! ha!

We like to name our cars. Dylan named our Kia, Jr.  We have agreed on the name, Spider-Van. Pretty cute, huh?

 Well, let me tell you a little info about the van. It's a 2004 Honda Odyssey EX-L. It only had 77000 miles on it. The dealer is having a guy come and install a DVD player with wireless headsets. The kids are so excited for that! We went to a dealer in Orem that only sells minivans. It's nice because then you are not sidetracked with all of the sports cars that you would rather be buying. And they have a big play area for the kids to play while you shop around. We got a really good deal too. www.minivansonly.com
So here are a few pictures!

I also said i never would drive a minivan, but now it sounds like a really good idea! We will have to check that place out! Cute color too.
