Four days before we left Utah David and I traded in our 2008 Commander for a 2010 Commander. It's a long story as to why that came about, but the new one has many more features than the old one. The kid's happen to like the live TV since they can start a show in the house and finish it in the car. I swear my kids do not watch that much television, but someone who has no idea would totally think that's all they do! Jaelin in particular missed our TV sooooo much during the move. She especially was unaccepting of the fact that once we unpacked it we still couldn't get cable for some time. While she was pouting on the outside I was rejoicing on the inside, seriously! No Spongebob!!! Tell me, when do they get out of that phase?? About 30 seconds into the realization that she wasn't going to be able to watch TV in the house she asked me for my keys. Oh my oh my...
When we were unpacking Ayden found a note from a friend that he rode the bus with in Utah. I wasn't really aware of who this little boy was so Ayden was trying to explain an instance where I had met him. He asked me if I remembered now, and I said "vaguely." Ayden- "Who's vaguely?" Oh the innocence...I wish I could remember more of Ayden's lines from when he was smaller; they just don't happen as much from him anymore.
Finally, Jaelin had gotten a boomerang in a kid's meal and decided she was going to go out back and try it out. David and I told her if she threw it, it would come back to her. Well, she threw it. Apparently it didn't come back beacuse she came in the house about 10 seconds later and said, "Ayden, you need to come play this with me. I think it's set on 2 players!"
