We are officially a member of the minivan club! Brad was able to take a trip back to the states last week to begin preparing for our big move. One thing we thought would be nice would be to have a vehicle as soon as we get there. We will ship his truck back but that could take a month or so. So as Brad landed in Raleigh he took a cab to the dealer to buy a car. Several hours later he drove away in the van after writing a check for $25,000. The funny thing is, this decision is sooo small compared to buying a house. Brad said that it felt like stopping at the gas station and buying a candy bar. He didn't even send me a picture, whereas I have looked about 500 different house pictures. We barely even talk about our new vehicle and have spent hours talking about the house.
The only way I saw the van was if it was sitting in front of a house he was looking at. So here are a couple pictures I found looking through the house pictures. By the way we are close to putting an offer in on a house but it is not this one.
P.S. Huge thanks to the Strohmeyers for picking up the van at the airport when Brad left and keeping it for us for a little bit.

Congratulations on buying a minivan! There must be a lot of decision making going on if the van was so easy:) We are praying for you.

James wants to know what happened to bringing back the Audi sports car?? ;)
Oh, wait. . . 2 kids happened! :)
What kind of van is that? I couldn't tell from the picture. I was the queen of mini-vans for so many years.
Kicking off the name suggestions. Maxwell was my grandfather's middle name as well as Uncle David's. Riley was my great uncle's middle name.
Good lookin' minivan! Like the color, too. We cont. to pray for your house decision - know it's a big one - and look forward to seeing pictures when you do finalize things.
Are you still wanting name suggestions that are verbs??
