Don’t be fooled by the size.

When we purchased our mini van we were convinced we would have all the room we needed to long trips. Now that we have two children and a dog the realization has come to me that mini vans really aren’t all that much bigger than a regular car. As we prepare to leave for vacation and I have begun putting the suitcases, Organic dog food, dog crate, stroller, and assorted supplies in the van I am beginning to wonder if there will be enough room for people. I can see why really big families would get extended cab or extra capacity vehicles. We are a small family and we don’t even fit.
