So.....as most of you know, Quentin and Yesenia are expecting twins. I am so very excited about this even though I know I will need to work my booty off cuz I told her I would help her, even if I have to spend the night the first few months. Not important right now...about my dad.
Quentin is so much like my dad. His attitude, his body shape, his opinions etc.....everything except Q has a stronger testimony than my dad and sincerely tries to live the gospel to the best of his ability, better than my dad.
Since they are expecting twins they have to double their efforts and stuff, pun intended, so Quentin and his little family stopped by last night and I could tell by Q's face something big happened. He finally spilled and said look outside. He just bought a new van (2008)! Originally they were gonna go down to the valley and look for one but just like my dad Q couldn't wait and got ants in his pants and just did it. ( Yesenia said you know how he is) The thing is, he got such a smoking deal on this vehicle just like my dad always did. He researched all the small vans like my dad would do, and decided on the one he got. It's a dodge, which he made fun of me for getting my Durango (he apologized later for making fun of me) but he said this particular van for what he was looking for had the best rating for the price range he was looking at. Can't remember what type of van it is. Anyways it has the seats that swivel and a table you can put up and two dvd players, a screen for backing up so you can see what's behind you and storage in the floor in front of the seats. He really made out like a bandit! I told him how glad I was for them and he comes by it honestly, getting good deals like my dad did. I won't tell how much he paid for it but he got a smoking deal on the trade in of his car, waaaaay more than he thought he would be given. Also Yesenia is a wheeler, dealer, she started to walk out a few times and said we're gonna go to Phx and look for a better deal. Quentin was so proud and beaming for his wife.
Jhade was so funny cuz she didn't want to get out of the car when we went out to look at it. Usually she cries to not want to go home but last night she was crying to get back in the van and go driving. She's such a funny little girl.
Side note: My grandpa was the same way so my dad came by it honestly. I guess it skipped me or maybe it's just a guy thing.

Thanks so much for posting this. See, you do have great things to say, and what a great tribute to your dad and greatgrandpa. :)
I'm happy for Q and Y and am so glad that they now join the ranks of nerdy van fams! I like my van even though I mocked vans for years.
Yay for Q and Y!!! Millie and I looking forward to the day that we can trade in the Seabring for van! Seriously, it's almost worth having another kid right now just for the excuse! :)
