check out our new ride!



We are the proud new owners of a 2008 Expedition EL and we are very excited!! With a third one coming on the way, we simply needed more room. Our Edge will not accommodate a third car seat so we needed something bigger. If you know Cody, you know he is a FORD guy and I was not allowed to look at anything but. So I had two options...an Explorer or an Expedition. We started looking at the regular Expeditions with the third row seating, did some measuring, and there just wasn't enough room behind the seats to allow for strollers and luggage. We tried folding seats down in the middle to see if we could strollers in that way and still, not enough room. We really felt our only option at this point was to go with the extended length. We went car shopping yesterday with the intentions of just trying to figure out what we were looking for. When we narrowed it down to the EL, we had found one on the internet in Sioux Falls and made it our last stop of the day. We had absolutely no intentions to buy yesterday, but before we knew it we were signing our life away :)  We don't have it in our possession quite yet. We got them to agree to fix a couple of things and it should be done in a couple of days. We already have a buyer for our Edge so everything worked our perfectly.  Now I've just got to get used to driving this big bus!!

    Wow nice, I am sure it will be just what you need with the little ones. Come and see us in it. Thought we maybe would get a surprise visit on Halloween, but do understand that it is a school night for Mom. Love you all, kids bags are waiting. Give them hugs and kisses.
