Howdy! It felt good to take a little break from the self-induced pressure of posting every day but I'm back. Tuesday, I spent most of the day working on some design stuff. Wednesday Jim had the day off so we ran some typical errands - a trip to Lowe's, ran into the mall, swung past the car dealership and spent the next few hours there buying a new (to us) minivan. After reading Total Money Makeover I decided that even though we could afford a new vehicle, I wanted to get a previously owned vehicle where we weren't eating the majority of the depreciation. We spent about 9 months researching what we wanted for our family and we had it narrowed down to two choices. On a whim we drove them both yesterday and this one was the winner!
By going with a previously owned (lease return) Sienna XLE NAV, we were able to get all the options that we had only daydreamed about getting and a monthly payment that was lower than what we had budgeted. So, we're all on a new car high and having fun figuring out all the bells and whistles.
The caterpillars are all still in their chrysalises but if you look close enough, you can kind of make out the wings so in the next few days I bet we'll have butterflies! I'll be sure to share pictures just as soon as I have them!!!
