Merry (early) Christmas To Me!


Well after much research and looking and getting some great negotiating tips from my Brother, Lance and I bought a mini van! We had decided it just wasn't practical to try and squeeze three children into our 91 Chevy Lumina (even though you really CAN technically fit three car seats in the back of it) and we took the plunge.


And I have to say that I am loving the mini van thing way more then I thought it would. I love all the extra space and it's so much easier to get the kids in and out. Who knew! And it doesn't hurt that I can now play CDs in my car, and that I can click the little button to unlock the doors. We have loved our Lumina (or Mina as our friends loving began referring to it, after the first two letters in "Lumina" fell off one day). We bought it from Lance's Grandma, it had low miles, was a great deal, has taken us cross country, and has awesome red crushed velvet interior that is extremely comfortable, but it's time for us to move on! We actually haven't sold the Lumina yet but only time will tell. :)

Yeah. Congrats! I love mini-vans. I wish I had gotten a Toyota. Next time around.

I can't believe you did it! This will no doubt make your move a little easier too;)

Congratulations!

I love mini-vans too. They are so practical and roomy inside! What a great Christmas present. And congrats on the baby. Three little girls will be so much fun!!!
