We Love Her!

We welcomed a new addition into our family! She was 201 inches long and weighed 4,378 pounds! We named her Odyssey. She is just beautiful!

That's right we are a van family now and we couldn't be happier:) I never knew we could have such love for a motor vehicle:) We feel so blessed that we found this particular van, it was far cheaper than the others comparable to it out there, it had good miles, lots of upgrades we didn't even need, and we were able to buy it right out and stay out of debt, that is probably the best part! The boys love it too! When we went to get the van, Owen thought we were coming home with the baby as well, since he knew we were getting a new car for when the baby came so we could all fit. He kept asking where she was and where her van was, it was so cute! Ryan said we need to take a long trip in the van to truly break her in, we'll have to wait a little bit for that! P.S. My favorite aspect is the power doors, glorious!

Just a note that Ryan texted the very first paragraph to his family without a picture and unknowingly we scared a number of them as they thought we'd actually had the baby and that we'd just forgotten some decimal points in her stats. Opps! We didn't realize we'd start such an uproar:)
