Another Car!

Well, we are officially a mini-van family! It was kind of weird that it happened already cause Rog and I had tossed the idea around a bit but never expected to get one right now. We were thinking in the next few months but our friend Adam was searching for us and found one the other day and it happened so fast we didn't really have time to think about it! Seriously, he called the house Tuesday afternoon and said this is what I have, what do you think, I will run the numbers and you can call me back. AUGH! What! Rog was at work and there was no way I was going to give the go ahead when I just do the driving. We couldn't really pass it up since our new little one is coming here soon! We cleaned out our car last night, drove it over and switched vehicles! It was a fast switch! I think it was a great move on our part so we'll see!

Luke seemed to enjoy the ride home last night along with his father who was in the passenger seat messing with all of the new little gadgets on the dash board. Let me restate that. I think Rog had way more fun than luke did on our ride home last night because there were so many new little gadgets in the front to mess with. On our way off the lot Rog asked me if I wanted to drive and after I said I did he told me he knew I would want to but I think he was glad I wanted to so that he could play with the buttons. I know my husband trust me!

Trust me heather. the option of what color wasn't even there. Adam said hey I have a car and here ya go. done deal. crazy how fast we switched. silver is just popular I guess. Pete and meg got a blue/shimmery looking one and I loved that one but maybe next time I can pick what color I want.

oh no, silver is very "sheek"--its the color to get these days!! We didn't have choice of color either with Adam! He's the best though and we'll take whatever he gives us! :) Happy driving soccer mom!!!:)

Are you guys going to Nordsells? We haven't been in church for about 2 1/2 weeks now...boys sick or we've been gone! Will be good to get back out! BUNCO here we come-you better not get too excited this year, you might go into labor :-)!!

Well, congrats!

Two new vans for two Merritt families in one week. Pretty exciting!

I love our new van, it is the BEST. We put one of the seats down (in the stow-and-go base) and can literally walk around thru the thing! It is soooo convenient, and the boys love it too.

Anyway, that is awesome! Very cool!
