To Boise and Back...last night

Yesterday we did something we rarely ever do. Very much spur-of-the-moment we decided to jump in the car when Isaac got of work and head to Boise to check out a vehicle, a Honda Odyssey to be specific. We have been looking for quite awhile for a larger vehicle that would suit our growing family. This vehicle they had just gotten in and already had two other people looking at it. So off we were to Boise to go check it out. I have never had to wheel and deal at a car lot before, so this was all new to me. I didn't love it, and our sales lady was less than pleasant. (She also ruined one of our DVDs trying to get it to work in the player, which I was super mad about) We didn't really anticipate getting into all of the negotiating, we mostly wanted to check it out, and if we felt that it was what we were looking for, go from there. Well a few test drives, a mechanic, a trashed DVD and three hours of negotiating later we actually ended up walking away van-less. We would have gotten a pretty awesome deal if we would have purchased it, but when it came right down to it we plain just didn't feel good about it. So we picked up our kiddos from my parents who were kind enough to watch and feed and entertain them for those three hours, and we headed back to Wendell, getting home about 12:30am this morning. So all in all it was pretty stressful but we felt good about our decision, and it was nice to get away for an evening.
