Though we do live in the country now, we have reasons for not letting our precious lambs ride their bikes in the neighborhood. So I decided to take them some place where they will have plenty of room to ride, now that we can load up all the bikes onto our shuttle bus!

Our New Ride!
We outgrew our Honda Odyssey 6 months ago when baby #6 was born. That van has been good to us, but we have to move on. Now a friend has it, so hopefully they will be able to build some great family memories with it as we did.
We have a good, reliable truck that my mom recently gave us, since she moved to the city and no longer had need of it. We will probably give it to Jonathan when he turns 16 (shhh!), but we are so thankful to have it for Myles to drive to work.
We decided to "keep" the van but turned in our HHR, after they were BOTH totalled for hail damage!!! We were shocked, but it has been such a blessing. It has enabled us to pay cash for our new family vehicle as well as have plenty of vacation money for September! YHWH always provides, and sometimes He will just blow you away! \o/
So here is our new ride, with 15 seats! Plenty of room for the whole family, some friends and neighbors! Well, not our current neighbors, as they are all snobs and we are plannng to move away from them ASAP. We tried for years to figure out how to get out of the city, but as much as I hated living there, all of our neighbors were AWESOME! I don't know what it is about these people here, but I digress.....
The kids have already claimed seats, and Jonathan claimed one for Rocket (the dog) as well for when we take him with us on vacation. Yep, we're going to have an awesome trip on that bus, building more great family memories. I can't wait!!!
