Lola

I did it! I joined the ranks of soccer moms everywhere. Friday afternoon Jason bought me a minivan. It has power doors, locks, windows and separate climate control for everyone. After going to the grocery store and pushing a button to open the back hatch the question “Why did I fight this for so many years?” came flooding into my mind. As I drive along the road I now see why every other car is a minivan. Convenience, and comfort just may be more important than forever being labeled dorky parents. What may make us even goofier than owning a minivan is the fact that we named her Lola. We hope she does not disappoint. Only time will tell if she was honest about how much gas she eats, and how long she will last. We have (as with every car) promised to care for her with the utmost concern. Here are a few pictures of Lola we hope you love her as much as we do.

Can I pinch her headlights? She is very...er...cute...I guess...
I love the name! Congrats on your new car! Welcome to the world of REAL moms!
Love Ya!
Well, now you've done it!
I am one of those Mom's who refused to go the mini-van route, too, and now drive a very cute Honda CRV. But, I have often thought how nice a spacious, comfy van would be, and now I know.
You go girl!
Congratulations on Lola, and I bet you look great in it, too!
Tanya, have we given our Ford Focus a name yet?
Oh-Lo-la! You look good, ma cherie.
We have the other sensible persons' car - the Honda Accord. Not cool at all where we drop the kids off to school, but I love my car for its space, safety, and comfort level too. Your minivan has the extra seating, a must for moms who ferry more than three kids around all over - so what more to be said? Some friends of ours reluctantly bought a minivan last November and they love it now - despite having knocked her wing mirror off already (The hubby did that, thank goodness!). What's the big deal with cool once we're past 30!! There's more to life :0)
Hope Savannah is feeling well post shots.
