Iliad


We have officially reached that momentous milestone in our married life. We now own two cars!


We bought this Odyssey this past weekend, after six and a half years, four kids, seven moves, two college graduations, eight different jobs, and many more mini-milestones. Are we doing things backwards? Sometimes I feel like we won't be able to buy our first home until retirement. But, maybe backwards to the norm is the right way to go. Different is good right? 


I didn't think we'd get an Odyssey, but it worked out being the car with enough seats, in our price range, with the lowest miles. And, I ain't gonna lie, we are AMAZED by all the space. I feel like we can swim around in there.  Lovin' it.

And here's a shout out to all those family members who have leant us vehicles over the years. Thank you! I owe you my sanity. I'm not joking even a little bit by that statement.

Ha! Who knew owning a minivan would feel so good, right?! But I remember that same amazement with the space!

sad to admit that it took me a while to figure out the title of your post, lol. Welcome to the club!! I remember how giddy I was when I realized that that we could both go different places at the same time! (and that I didn't have to drive him to school anymore!) So exciting!
