Our new addition!


No, our baby boy is not here yet, but they are both very expensive! We are now part of the minivan club. Our initiation was all the hours spent thinking and praying about this purchase, not to mention actually writing the check! We bought a 2008 Kia Sedona yesterday and feel pretty good about. March will be here soon enough and we will need more room.


On a sad note we traded in the Ford Ranger. Gordon had that Ranger for 8 years and put many miles on it. It holds a lot of good memories too as it was the transportation for our dates before and after marriage as well as Gordon's daddy-daughter dates with Anna. Anna already says she misses the truck and how she can't sit up front with her Daddy. But I don't think she minds something new as well!

You should have found a replica of our old Pontiac Trans Sport. Everybody loves a car that looks like a dustbuster.

Congrats! I love having a van and love the extra room!

Looks good! It's nice having the extra room - at least until you fill it up!

Do the girls have a nickname for the van yet? Kinda looks like a beautiful blue baby whale.

Hi, this is Hanna writing! I LOVE the new van but I really think you should have bought a station wagon like the ones you grew up with!! I'm sure you will have just as many fun and crazy memories in this one! I'm so happy for you. Nothing like a new car!

I almost cried when we decided that a minivan was necessary. It is nice not to have to bend over to get the kids out though. I still would rather have a cute little 4 door!
