What does it mean when the city cuts the snow removal budget?

This... Sadly we traded in our blue Camry this weekend for, gulp, a MINIVAN! (I'm 26 and driving a minivan. I'm slightly depressed about it.) Luckily it has All wheel drive!

Have Rob put a blade on the front of it and you could earn that $900.00 by plowing for the neighborhood.

I think I remember us being teenagers and saying how horribly ugly minivans are and how we wouldn't ever want to drive one. Honestly, I really want one. It'd be so more convenient sometimes! Good for you :)

Ha ha! I think you got the same exact minivan we have. What color is yours? Ours is white. You may not feel very sexy drving it but it is nice to have the extra space.

I dreamed about snow last night. It melted before I could take a picture of it or find my children to show them.

Hey, I gave in and got one in February (I was only 25!). It's not stylish, but it is practical. And now that you'll have 3 kids it's very needed (all that space).
And to Maren: just wait, you'll do it eventually too!

I was like you, repulsed by the thought of becoming a minivan mom...but now that I am actually a mom, I dream of owning a minivan! Especially now that you can push a button and all the doors and windows open automatically! Smart move!

I've wanted a minivan for so many years I think I've forgotten that I had to get over the fact that I would be one of "those" moms. I'm cool with it now-but I don't have a minivan either!!

You'll be grateful when you can seat your kids far enough apart they can't touch each other. Wait. Your kids are too nice to beat each other up in the car. Unlike mine. :) Happy New Minivan!

Hi Kids!!!

Don't worry, you can still jam out to your naughty music in the minivan (and you can turn the dial so only you can hear it up front). Claire can't hear the music (meaning she won't snitch on you again!) What was that song, again?
