When our family expanded in January of this year (2010) we had to upgrade our 5 seater sedan to accomodate our 4 lovely children and ourselves. At the time of looking for a new vehicle we were taking other people out all the time and being as generous as we are we ended up buying a van which would hold all 6 members of our family plus another 2 people. At first having the van was OK I guess but both myself and my partner were used to a car with power so to drive this van was like piggy backing on a snail.
Whilst my Fiance was in hospital a few months ago I of course was driving around here there and everywhere as I had daily erands to run. One morning whilst backing out of the drive I noticed that the van was having trouble reversing, but due to it raining I just put it down to the drive being slippery and that was why my tyres couldnt grip the concrete. Little did I know at the time that was the first of many problems that was about to happen with our snail. From that day on the van seem to get worse and worse as time went on.

We decided an upgrade would be in order and so the search began for another car but this time only to accomodate our actual family being just the 6 of us. We looked at sooo many cars on the net as well as going and looking at cars in car yards and always found something that we liked the look of but in the back of our minds we didnt want to find that we rush into buying yet another car that is a BOMB and something we cant rely on so we always walked away and thought about it and discussed with each other what to do.

Yesterday my Fiance was searching for cars on the net and found one that has exactly everything in it that we want so he went straight down to the car yard and looked and then BOUGHT the car. We pick it up TODAY. YAYYYYY

I'm Mummy to 4 gorgeous kids who are the light of my life. Amelia who is 7 is my little Fairy girl who I'm very proud to say is not only my daughter, but my bestfriend. Joshua is 4years old and is Mummys little Lion boy. He is such a cheeky little boy who makes me contantly laugh with being such a chariter. I've recently brought fraternal twins into this wonderful world of ours. Kaiden and Hollie who are so different from each other. Kaiden is laid back and seems to like to take it easy where as his sister Hollie is a little Princess and may only be a month old, but already loves to get her own way. I share my life, a house and a bed with my amazing Fiance Chris who I plan on marrying in August of this year. I can't wait to be his wife and he my husband.
