Goodbye honda

Out with the old

In with the new

Isn't it beautiful? Our reconstructed 2004 Toyota Sienna! It's a huge step up from the above '88 Honda Accord (which we sold this weekend) and our 2000 Chevy Prizm. Just having power windows and locks is pretty cool, not to mention all the features minivans have that are so kid-friendly. Yeah, just for the driver and passenger seats there's a total of 8 cupholders! So now we can travel with all of our favorite beverages. :)

Since we live on an island we'll probably see the old Honda driving around for years. Heck - just to take it off the island costs like $750 so it'll probably spend the rest of it's live here.

Aaah, the memories of that car....

It was John's car in high school and after his mission he got it back for school. We kept it as newlyweds and up until Lexi was born. On a trip to WA we broke down in a small farm town in Idaho, turns out we forgot to put the oil cap back on. A wad of duct tape wedged into the hold worked until we got to a town with car parts. In college it broke down because the radiator hoses were worn out. John's dad talked him through how to replace them over the phone. We sold it to my parents, who then sold it back to us after Kaytlin was born and we thought we were cool stuff owning 2 cars. It has served us well and now that it's gone I wish we had named it. Goldie or something like that. Sianara Honda!
