Our New Baby!

So we have been talking about getting a new car for a very long time now. The subject usually gets heightened by any upcoming trips. Before we went to Colorado we had a very serious discussion about getting a new car but felt way to rushed. We started to feel as if our trip to California is just around the corner so of course we began once again talking about getting a new car. Martin wants to make sure we get to California safely...I am a little more naive and think we could just make it on faith alone. I know that is not very practical and so that is how we came to getting our new Nissan Armada. When everything was hypothetical we would always say we were going to get a Dodge Durango. It was one of the first things we test drove and immediately we knew that was not the car for us. With Martin putting his seat completely back so he fits, the girls could not put their feet down. They sat cross legged the entire time. The Armada has tons of room and Martin doesn't feel cramped whatsoever.

It is a full sized SUV so it has three rows of seats. Leather seats, which I always said I would not get because they are either too hot or too cold. For the too cold the solution is seat warmers. They make your buns nice and toasty.

I really don't know why I took this picture but this is what I see most often while I am in the car. It drives really smoothly and goes really fast. One thing I like is the dual air control because if Martin is just right that means I am freezing cold.

So the second day we went back we were test driving some other Armadas they had found for us. The first one did not have the DVD players in the head rests. I look back while we are driving and Alex is crying because she wants the car with the DVD player in it. Such a drama queen. She also started to cry when we left the Jeep at the dealership and continually said she was afraid we had left something in there. All in all I think we are all excited about our new car, even Alex.
