I'm a real Mormon mom now!!!

So we got a call on Saturday morning from a friend of ours who works at the car dealership where we have purchased our last 3 cars. He had seen that we only had a year left on our lease (which we hated) and thought maybe he could swing a deal for us to get us out of it. So we spent a bulk of the day down there, test driving and working the numbers. I told him we would only want to do it with certain conditions and they were able to meet all of them. The payment is $60 less than we were paying, the loan is only one year longer than it would have been, and they got us a 5yr/100,000 mile warranty. We ended up coming home with a Chevy Venture minivan that we LOVE!! And even though we won't need the extra space for awhile, (I'm not pregnant :)) we are very excited about it!! Here it is....

Ain't she purty!!
Chasey really likes being so high up....
And he always laughs when we use the automatic sliding door!!

I really love it and I am so happy we made this purchase!!

I swore that I would never-ever-in-a-million-years own a mini van... well, you know what I drive. They are great when you have kids. You will love the room... especially when your next one comes along... wink wink.

You are a mommy now! You have your badge. Kyle and I have tried a couple of times to buy a mini van, but ended up with a nice car and a full size Ford truck instead! We just can't do it yet. :)

When I was pregnant with twins, I new our little honda civic wouldn't cut it, so ROB decided to get me a new car. Everytime we get a new car, he just DOES it. It feels like I have no say in it, he just shows up with it. I think I was in WA when he got the mini-van. I wasn't thrilled but had no other good option, and then I loved it. Then we needed more room and had to move to the 9 passenger suburban... with all those car seats, we needed more space. Your mini-van will be still great when you have those triplets. ;D
