Yes, a minivan... which is why the title of this is "Takin' One for the Team". My entire life I pledged that I would never own a minivan. However I feel that as the Mommy of 3 precious girls it is more important to have smooth transitions in and out of the car than to ride in true style.
I had 2 major criteria for this purchase...
1. It had to be an Odyseey
2. It had to be SILVER
Mike did lots of research and worked with several dealers and my brother, David, to find the best deal. He decided to go for the deal on a 2008 which was a challenge... most of the silver 08s were gone. Chris at Gillman Honda, San Antonio finally found one in Schertz, TX. YAHOO! So the whole family loaded up in the MDX (which the girls and I will miss) and headed to San Anton to pick up our new ride.
During dinner at Oakridge Barbeque off I-10 we discussed the name we would give to our new Odyseey. Kelsey and I voted Olivia, Melissa brought up Jan - it rhymes, and Mike said what about Stan (he really felt it should have a boy name to make him feel less out numbered). So that is how Stan the Man, Minivan joined our family.
