It finally happened...

I swore that it wouldn't. I promised myself that I would never let it happen. Not to me. I'm too groovy and funky. Someone would have to drag my butt, kicking and screaming the entire way. But it did. I drive one of these now...

And yet, it's not that bad. We were just out of room in the CR-V. We couldn't fit more than 5 in it and with the girl's car seats in the back row, it was nearly impossible to carry anything bigger than a stroller or some groceries in the back.

The Odyssey rocks in some pretty cool ways. The sliding doors are pressure sensitive. That means if something is sticking out in their way, they will butt up against it and then pull back open. The doors can also be closed and opened from the key fob. And it rides a lot smoother than the CR-V. We'll get about the same MPG as the old Honda too. Plus, we can fit 7 in it without a problem and 8 if we really need to. And we have 15 drink holders. Top that!

It's official, I am fully domesticated.
