I should be packing...
Tuesday, November 20, 2007 at 06:28PM We leave in about 12 hours. I have yet to even get the bags out of the basement, let alone begin packing. But. I have a list of things to remember to pack. Does that count? ;)
Anyhoo. The boys and I were running the inevitable last minute errands today. A couple random funnies:
As a "reward" for good behavior, we also stopped by one of our favorite local toy stores to window shop for a wee bit. The boys discovered this awesome doll house...yes, a very pink doll house. The clinching "cool factor"? It had a working elevator! Being boys, though, they didn't even consider using the elevator for the dolls and doll things there with the doll house. No. Rather, they hauled the space rocket and planes over from another display and proceeded to let the planes and rockets ride the elevator. Yet another of those moments that remind me that boys are different than girls. ;) I remember the little pink stroller I once bought...that was used immediately for racing trains around the house.
Had to go to the bank drive through also. Odd as this may sound, this is only the second time I've used a bank drive through in the entire time we've lived in Colorado (so a bit more than 5 years). Hence, the boys aren't familiar with the concept. A couple weeks ago I had just Noah with me when I went for the first time. He was in awe of the vacuum tube system that takes the transaction from your car to the tellers. Thought it was seriously cool (which it is, of course...I personally have thought many a time that that type of system would be fantastic for mail delivery and fully intend to work that into the plans should we ever build our own house). So. Today when I mentioned we needed to stop at the bank Noah got all excited and couldn't wait to show Asher. "We're going to the sucky bank!" he proclaimed. Yes. That sucky bank. :) Gotta love it.
Okay. I seriously need to go start packing (and all sorts of other things to get ready). Gonna spend the holiday with family for a change and we're stoked. Don't forget to check back on Thursday if you get a chance for the second week of OUT ON A LIMB, okay? And if you don't, let me wish you a Happy Thanksgiving now! Enjoy!
