My New Obsession


The other day, my good friend Tiff looked after the kids so that Dana and I could dart around town, price out some reno stuff and have a nice lunch date. On our way home I asked Dana if we could go do some 'dream building'. We pulled into the dealership and admired this beute. I sat in it, felt it's new cloth interior and fancy steering wheel. It is a carlike minivan. It seats 6 people. Has fold down seats, with underseat storage, 5 Star safety rating, an excellent warrantee, and it's great on gas. Mazda's traditionally haven't had the best track record, but after Dana did some further inverstigation he discovered they are one of the best out there right now. I WANT IT!

Sooooo.... the deal is, according to Dana, if we move and sell our house I get it! Is that incentive or what!!! No stupid van that breaks down, won't start, and the window won't even roll up.

That being said, I guess I need to eloborate where we are on the whole moving topic. Basically, nothing has been decided, but we are definately looking and being serious in our search. I am pretty sure (not 100%) that we will be back by May. Dana has a great opportunity for work through his previous employer and we have some other cool 'house' ideas. Not to mention being back close to family. It is a little sad thinking about leaving Regina. It really has become home for us here and I think I will miss the wide open prairies and that beautiful country sun; however, we are firm believers that God has a plan and we know we can trust in Him.

Plus, then I get my new cool car! Yay!

Is that a Mazda 5? Mike and I looked at them, oh ya baby! That's what I wanted if I got a new car. Things went in another direction though and I'm happy my ol' car is paid for. But oh to dream!

Interesting on the "home" front. I guess we'll see how things work out and settle, wow, that would be a double celebration time in May (actually 3 things, ok 4 - Sha and Phil's wedding, you guys moving back, your birthday and the birth of Lindsay and Justin's baby boy - Jace!) Lots to celebrate!!
