Cathy and the minivan

We had the day planned. Get in the car, go to the mall and shop, go grocery shopping and then go to the Festival of Lights. Yea.

Nope.

I mentioned to Jim that I wanted to test drive a Sienna because I was starting to get frustrated with the whole space thing in my car and he made a b-line to Toyota. Wow. He said, if you want one, I'll get you one.

For those of you that don't know, Jim has threatened me with a mini-van since we got married. I said from Day One - no way in hell would I ever drive one. Hmmm. Well, I guess when you get as frustrated as me, you start thinking about it.

Anyway, I got in. Jordan came along and we took off. Let me tell you - space really is the final frontier. It was HUGE! I was amazed at how big it was. But it was comfy. I looked back and Jordan and she was smiling ear to ear. She said "this is awesome" I have so much room. Ugh. My heart sank a little because secretly I was really hoping I'd hate it. I didn't. :(

We tooled down the highway and enjoyed the ride. It definetly had a sweet ride and handled really well. I got off at the Mt. Zion exit and waited at the light to get back on. I floored it. Yep, getting onto the highway with a sharp turn, I floored it. Wow! It's cool.

It's HUGE, but it's cool.

So if I admit that I actually like it, does that mean I'm a soccer mom? Crap!
