My new car!

So this is it--Isn't it GREAT--the car of my dreams--the Ford Flex!  I love it!  I feel TOTALLY spoiled by my husband.  Thank you, babe!

So, we went test driving, trying to see what I could handle (I was extremely nervous to drive a bigger car--I have been driving the same little car since I was 16).  It was basically between a mini-van and the Ford Flex.  I felt more comfortable driving the Ford Flex--it has a lower profile, I can see the hood, whereas in the van, I kind of feel like I'm driving this big boat--I can't really explain it.  The problem was the Flex was generally more expensive and maybe not as reliable as a Ford, and it was really hard to find used Flex's with the model we wanted.  Well, after test driving, S. really felt like it was out of our budget right now, so I was bummed.  BUT then, a week or so later, S. called me from work, and told me to unload the carseats from my car and have the stroller ready.  He had found an awesome deal on a Flex and was wanting to see if the carseats and stroller would all fit.  Well, he came home a few hours later, and had bought me my new car!  I had never seen it in person, but I had total trust.  He got a great deal--it is totally brand new--and with the white roof that I love that is hard to find.  I love it! Sometimes I'm still in total shock when I go out to the garage and see it there!
