So for quite some time we have been considering getting a new car. My Mini has been giving me some problems off and on, and though it is a fun car, it's just kind of inconvenient. We wanted something bigger (thinking ahead to when we have kids - although that does not mean we are having kids anytime soon!) and we really liked the Honda CR-V. We decided we wanted to go ahead and get the car sooner rather than later, while we could still get some value out of the Mini on a trade-in.Long story short, after much haggling and pain, we brought our new CR-V home this past Saturday. It is a light blue color (called "Glacier Blue") and so far, we love it. We are amazed at how much room it has (since we have been driving a Honda Civic and a Mini Cooper for the past few years). It drives really smoothly too. We love it! (The pictures don't do it justice - it was kind of dark and cloudy when I took them, so it's kind of hard to see the exact color of the car.)
