Blaine and Erin + 2 kids = one sweet minivan

Well, we finally broke down and bought ourselves a minivan last night. We traded in our 2009 Nissan Murano for a more "family friendly" 2008 Honda Odyssey. I joked with Blaine that I never thought I would own a minivan, mostly because they aren't the most attractive means of transportation. Even though I grew up with minivans, I never liked them and swore I would never own one. However, now that I am older and by all means, more mature :), I see the benefits that only a minivan can bring. :) If nothing else, I am really loving the extra cargo space for groceries and strollers! I'm also loving the fact that it came with only 15,000 miles! Do we miss our Murano? Sadly, not really. We miss how smooth it drove, but not much more than that. Dear neighborhood carpools, count us in!
