Da du du duh!!!!.........Introducing.......

The Bat-hooligan-mobile!!
(Honda Odyssey EX, 2003, ~71,000 miles, ~$11,000, charcoal grey, grey leather interior)


Actually, the girls like to name our cars.......Chloe (Mark's 1st white Honda), Mac (Mark's current white Honda), Blue (the old blue Villager.....can you tell the hooligans like Foster's???)....Kendra and Cami decided to name this one Shiloh (????? mom scratching head over this one)......but my good friend Jeanne Mumper offhandedly called it the Batmobile because of it's color, so thats what I call it.

ANYWAY, in the wake of the ill-fated-vacation-rear-ender-incident (refer to previous posts for that story) that essentially "did in" our blue van (would have cost more to repair than it was worth), we've spent the last month praying and looking for a replacement. As usual, God provides. We were able (with a few intervening hurdles) to get the make, model, mileage, and price we were hoping for. God is so good, and we're thankful for his provision for us. It's roomier than the villager was, with more room in the back, so I'm happy about that. The girls are liking the cd player as the other van only had a tape deck. I think everyone enjoys having their own air vent above each seat, and I'll for sure love the heated seats in mid December when I get up early to drive to Jeanne M.'s house to walk. Granted - this particular feature isn't particularly useful in S. CA in Aug., but its time will come!!
