New Car!

We've been wanting to upgrade to a minivan for a few years now so we saved up & were finally able to afford one! It's a 2006 Honda Odyssey & we love it! It doesn't have too many miles on it, it still has that 'brand new' car smell, It has 8 seats, and my favorite feature is the sliding doors open & close with a push of a button! So cool!
The thing I love the most about this van is that it's 100% ours! We really didn't want any more debt so we made sure we could pay for this car in cash (Thank you Air Force Sign-on Bonus!). Claira asks me to pick her up from school with the van instead of walking to pick her up & I am more than happy to oblige, but maybe that's just because I'm being lazy;) We're all really excited to go on a trip so we can see how much junk we can fit in there!

I love it! Congrats! And way to go on buying it outright- we think that's the best way to go too. :)

No car payments is the best! Yay for being debt free!
