Some Upgrades in 2013

Good Bye Old Van

Hello New Van (Feb. 2013)

You have to look closely to see the difference. We switched our Nissan Minivan for a newer Toyota Sienna minivan.  I was sad to say goodbye to my Nissan because I have loved it.  But it only took a little while to learn to love my new van.  It gets better gas mileage, has tons more room, is smooth and has some neat gadgets.  The kids love the automatic sliding doors.  They fight over who gets to open or close them.  Overall, I feel very spoiled to have such a nice vehicle.   Thanks Ed!!  

Another Upgrade (Anniversary gift)

We thought we'd join the rest of the world and get a Kindle Fire HD (sort of like an Ipad but cheaper).  The girls LOVE it.  This is a picture of them both playing on the Kindle and Ipod. I don't know if this is a step forward for our family or a step backward. ??
