So right after we got home yesterday we headed over to the bank to sign for our new vehicle! With the problems with Mike's truck, as well as it not being a family vehicle we knew that we needed a new vehicle soon. Mike has done tons of research and he finally found this great buy of a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Since most people are getting rid of their SUVs because of gas prices, we got a steal of a deal on it. It has a V-8 engine, with only 42,000 miles, as well as automatic everything, sunroof, and 4-low drive option. It's truly so fantastic to have a reliable car that we can all fit into comfortably. Things were extremely tight yesterday when we took home Carter, so it's nice that getting the car seat in and out is an easy process now. We are still looking to sell our truck, so we pray that we'll be able to do that soon.

Christina's sister, Sarah who just had her boy a few weeks earlier also had to get a new vehicle, but they had to upgrade from a minivan to a 12 passenger van! They also wanted to have the option for natural gas to save a ton on filling up, but sadly the van doesn't have any automatic locks or windows. They still love the van and it's nice to have all of the family back in one vehicle.
