We I purchased a van last week. I’ve been wanting one since last summer but had been keeping quiet about until two weeks ago when Nick made mention that we’ve had my Volvo longer than any car we’ve ever owned. Cue to my ears that it’s okay to really get serious. I was looking and comparing for a good six months and finally found one that would be perfect for us. Every time we go on vacation, we rent the Chrysler Town and Country, which was what started my great van debate. I loved the space that van offered.
After I found what I wanted and thought would be a good fit for our family, I got some quotes and then the next day headed to the dealership with the best quote. I also knew what I wanted for a trade in for my car because we had equity in it and I would not take less. Of course they tried low-balling a trade in offer, but I stood my ground and wouldn’t take less.
Four hours later, the van was ours and I got the number I wanted, plus extra incentives! I called it a win and signed away. We are the new proud owners of a 2015 Honda Odyssey. I love it! The kids love! And, it’s growing on Nick, ha!

The kids and I get to test it out on our 9 hour road trip we are taking to go visit my sister and her family. I also decided to put on seat covers for the back seats to protect them from the slimy, sticky, dirty, and messy toddlers!
I won’t be posting over the next few weeks, but we will be having a great time with family. We’re all excited about that!
