So a little shout out to the one car families out there and to our Jeep that was so good to us in the end. Last summer you gave us quite a scare with all the money we had to put in you but at least we got some of it back in the sale. It was given to us by Brett's parents anyways after we got married so even though it was older and had a few kinks, it was free. And no one can argue with a free car. And it was SO NICE not to have a car payment. Brett misses the man power he felt in it...you just can't get the same feeling when driving a mini van around.

One Car
Well we are back to being a one car family again! Saturday someone came and bought our Jeep. It was such a good car. I loved the four wheel drive. I felt invincible in the snow LoL Although during the summer it is miserable without the AC and the gas millage is horrible. It would take $60 to fill her up twice, sometimes three times a month when it was the only car we had. Driving one car has its perks though. 1. We save on gas money. 2. We save on insurance. 3. I don't go anywhere during the day where I can spend money frilly nilly without Brett being there to talk some since into me. haha All around, a good money saver for our family I think. Besides, winter is coming up soon and I don't like driving around in the snow very much and I don't think I will want to go anywhere in a couple of months anyways with a newborn baby and Toddler in the house.

I agree about all the perks of being a 1 car family!!! I haven't found any drawbacks worth crying over :)
ENJOY your mini-van!
i LOVE being a one car family. every once in a while we'll have something that takes a little strategic planning but besides that it's just great. we've only had our rav 4 since we got married. i think it will be weird for us when we actually switch to the two car family gig!
