Out with the old, in with the new...

One of our fall projects was to sell our honda and buy a minivan. We were pretty sentimental about this car - it was our first car (Stephen bought it right before we graduated from college) and we shared it for the first 2 1/2 years of marriage. We drove 5000 miles in it to California and back, and put on almost 100k miles during the 5 years we owned it. We sold it for just $2,000 less than what we bought it for. Gotta love hondas!!!

And here is the new minivan. We are completely spoiled to have this - it is much easier getting the boys in and out and having tinted windows and individual temperature controls helps a lot with long travel! We bought it used from a family that had teenagers so it is free of little kid stains and smells! And it was several thousand below our budget so we feel blessed to have found it! Hopefully it has a good 100k miles of use left in it!

Such a great blessing :) So fun to be passengers in it when we were all in Chicago!
