the wheels on the mini-van go round and round...

we traveled to youngstown today. this is our first trip in a mini-van. can you believe it, i, jo bilberry, am driving a mini-van! stephon bought me a 2008 nissan quest. it's not bad, it's black and has some style and shape to it for a mini-van. at least that's what stephon and my dad keep telling me. i think they're just trying to make me feel better.

it was a nice ride. there is a ton of space in the back for our luggage. i didn't have to sit everything on the driveway and pack it like a 3-d puzzle for a change. we just sat it all in there :) and check this out... we now don't have to ask for free home delivery when the new baby comes! there's room for all of us :)

we're staying at my dad's for the week. tomorrow we'll go to a tractor pull, sunday is my niece's (elizabeth) 1st birthday, next saturday is another tractor pull, and my aunt kay and uncle rick are visiting my mom's next sunday. so we will be heading back home next monday, the 15th. stephon didn't come with us :( he's working and taking care of the dogs.

initially you might think that he got the short end of the stick on this one. however, think of all the meals and glasses of ice water he'll be able to enjoy without little fingers in it; all the video games without pulled plugs and powered down x-boxes in the middle of them; and all of the uncensored / non-cartoon tv shows he'll be able to watch! i think he'll survive just fine without us.
