Big Blue Has a new Driver

We have a large conversion van, a 15 passenger van that seats 7 very comfortably. In fact the back seat folds down into a full size bed! We are very fortunate to have such a great van (although it is heavy on gas).

Warrick is learning to drive it and I let him drive to church this morning and I have to say I am very impressed with how well he handled the van. Of course like all beginner drivers he is trying to get a sense of how wide the vehicle is, and in this case, it is a wide one! He actually initially said he didn't want to learn to drive the van because he wants a car. Our attitude is that if you can drive this, then you can drive anything!

Insurance premiums wil be rising in the near future!

Adding to the Family - Auto that is

Well, the Smelker Seven are now proud owners of a Chevy Conversion van. Take one Express van, tear it apart, put it back together with a full size bed, captain's chairs, custom CD player, 17 inch TV and you have our van. Here it is! Oh, we even nicknamed the vans so the kids know which one we mean. Our green van (which has been an absolutely wonderful van) is called "Kermit" and the blue one is "Big Blue".
