I like being productive. There are very few times that I truly feel like sitting around and wasting the day. Today, was not one of those days.
The girls and I headed out this morning to do a little shopping while Jason took care of some work stuff. We met up for lunch and dropped the van off to get some brake work done - kind of important I suppose.
We decided that since it was an unseasonably warm day here in MI that we would go test drive some cars. We are in the early stages of considering the replacement of the van. We've certainly loved having it. But now that the girls aren't babies and we don't need all that space anymore, it's time to move on. I've loved the van and its versatility. It has served us well. Oh, except that time for Olivia's birthday that it crapped out on I-94 and we had to walk in the freezing cold and have my dad come help us out.
New car considerations right now - Nissan Altima, Toyota Prius or Camry and the Ford Taurus. Didn't get to drive the Ford today since they were on 'winter hours' and closed at two today. Who knew. Guess we'll try again next weekend.
It's fun looking at cars. Love some of the things that have changed since we got the van. Nifty technology. Realizing how lazy and convenience driven we have gotten. Sad when you think about it.
