No, this is not my dream car. It is a Honda Odyssey. But I think it should be re-named "The Mormon Mini-van". Why, you ask? Because I counted 24 of these things in our church parking lot on Sunday. Yes, 24. Apparently, people like it. Uuuhh. . .24.This is my dream car.
The mini cooper. Why? Look at it! It's so cute and little! I love it! Mostly because it's small and it can only fit me and a bunch of shopping bags! And it would be fun to zip around in. And also because the picture below is my car right now.
A big old conversion van. Don't get me wrong. It's a fantastic family car. There's plenty of room for the kids. It's great to travel in. It's comfortable. We've even camped in it! But it's sooo not cool and zippy. It's like a mini double decker bus. And I'm pretty sure two mini coopers could fit inside of it. It's HUGE! But I'm a mom with five kids and it definately works for us.

You're totally right about the Odyssey. I have one, my mom has one, and every time I'm in a church parking lot, or any in Utah, I have a hard time finding which one is mine. But I am still in love with it. It is my most prize possession after my Bosch Mixer, that's right.
I love the family pics, they turned out great. Everyone is looking so grown up, we miss you guys. Max continually asks when we're getting together. Maybe we'll just have to come see you all sometime.
I think you're cool and zippy anyway!
I love your post! LOL! What a great pic of your kiddos! I wish I'd had you take a pic of my family before we left...what was I thinking???
Anyway...hope the house isn't too tight, if it helps...we are back in a 3 bedroom as well, AND all the hawaiians out here squeeze all their extended families into a 2-3 bedroom house (like inlaws, and grandparents) we all park in the lawn, and pay over $5 for a small bucket of strawberries! AH!
I came through another website on a customized blog tut and found your blog so charming that I took a gander :)
What a neat fam you have and such sweet kids :) I loved what you wrote here about the cars and the whole thing was too funny =^^=
I hope you do get your mini cooper one of these days, and I agree with the other post who thinks you're cool and zippy anyway ^^
Have a blessed day and thanks for sharing the laughter,
Eve
