Meet the newest member of our family...

Sophie! The kids actually call her "Silver Sophie".

She is a brand new 2008 Honda Odyssey with dual power slider doors, 6 disc cd changer, triple zone electronic climate control, 8 passenger seating, stow and go seating, and lots of extras. We got the Silver Pearl color with stone interior. It's such a great van! We kept the old van for John to use and we've sold the Ford Crown Victoria. It's been a busy week!

I've been busy this week shopping for a new van, school supplies, school clothes, and getting unpacked from our wonderful trip. We leave tomorrow for a camping trip with Grandpa and my next task is to pack for it (and no, Sophie is NOT invited, she'll get too dirty!).

I've really enjoyed having the kids at home for the summer, but I'm looking forward to having a little break next week when they are back in school. I've still got lots to get done while they're there but I'll at least get lots of quiet time!
