Flying Pigs

Well, it's happened. Pigs do fly. Ryan and Rachelle have bought a mini van. We have finally joined everyone we know in mini van land. In high school my parents had a mini van and it was the very uncool vehicle that I had to drive whenever I did anything with my friends. I clearly remember saying numerous times that I would never in my life own a mini van. Well, you get married, have a couple kids, and suddenly a mini van looks pretty darn good. Last night we went to look at it and it was exactly what we wanted. We had made a list of everything we needed it to have and everything we wanted it to have, and this one had everything we wanted it to have, and for a really good price. It's a 2003 silver Chev. Venture extended. It has it all...the usual a/t/c etc. etc. and the good stuff like power sliding door (only 1 side for some reason), DVD player!!, newish really good tires, well, basically everything you could possible need it has. So, we're pretty excited. We pick it up tonite. Now for the sad part. We have to sell our beautiful Acura EL. We're pretty attached to that car, and it has taken us through some of the biggest events in our life, but it is just too small now. Oh well, life will go on I'm sure. Anyway, once we get our new baby home I will post a picture. I have to post this picture from Grant & Cheri's going away party. It's kinda hard to see, but we were the only car there. We felt very lonely in our car. I guess we finally fit in. Don't we get some kind of party for joining the mini van club?!
