a sad day

today i did something i never thought i'd do. my wife kari and i have 4 kids. anyone with 4 or more kids knows that transportation for the whole family can be a bit tricky. we have a minivan and you should see us in it. wall to wall people..no more room for anything....a tiny cargo area behind the back seat and that's it. today i dropped off our mazda mpv at hollingsworth mazda to have a luggage rack installed. that's right....it's a sad day. i'll be that guy driving down the interstate, with a huge cargo carrier on top, moving enough wind to power a small city. i can't believe we actually grew out of a regular minivan and now we have to put our junk on top of the vehicle. that truly is sad. not sure if we're just too big for a minivan or if we have too much stuff. picture after the break!
