Our friends

We went to Indiana this week to spend time with Ben, Laura, Ally, and James. I've decided sometimes I don't quite know how much something means to me until it is gone. I knew that before we went but I remembered again after we left. Of course, I knew it was great when they lived down the street from us. Our friendship was one with no pressure to be a certain way. It was pretty true.
The trip was relaxing. We got to pick up where we left off. Even the kids seemed to feel the same. They didn't fight but just played and played. Isaac and Theron have it all figured out. They think that if we just put a for sale sign up in the yard of their old house down the street that the people who live there will have to move out and our old friends can just move right back in. Why didn't I think of that?
For pictures of the trip...

Theron thinks...

--"I am so grossed out of this meat."
--"Dad, you can tie my feet together 'cause I'm tired of walking."
--"I need help. My shirt is inside outside."
--"Mmm, it tastes like lemonade french fries."
--"Some day, mommy, my tummy's going to be really fat."
--"Mom, my breath hurts."
--"Larry, did you know these are made in China. The Indians made them in China."
--“It’s a good thing our necks are so circle-y so we can swallow a bunch of noodles or...anything!”
--“Mom, if you look really closely up and stretch your neck you can look like a giraffe.”
--"It was much more fun when me and grandpa were together."
--"Mom, I wish you had the money job."
--"Isaac, I have an idea...when we start to fight, let's stop."
--“Daddy, coaches don’t like to be tickled.”
--“If I do sin, I think I’ll get destroyed.”
--“If I was Humpty Dumpty I would not fall off the wall.”
--“The password is bird poop forever.”
--“Hey, wait a second...you can’t hog all of it!”
--“Urg! This isn’t going very well!”

You Don't Know Ike

--"If today is Independence day then why didn't you let me choose my own clothes?"
--"He was supervising me. Supervise means boss."
--“Don’t say dumb. Dumb is a stupid bad word.”
--"My brain told me. I guess they are good for somethin' besides just sittin' up there."
--“That’s because sometimes I am as smart as a scientist.”
--“Theron, I want to tell you something. President Hinckley said, ‘Don’t ever forget to pray’.”
--“Mom, wanna smell my arm pit? Does it smell boyish?”
--“I have a really good heart for things that you do for me.”
--“Mommy, girls aren’t boys. That’s the first thing about boys.”
--“Mommy, sometimes when I wear two underwears it keeps my pelvis warm.”
--“It’s annoying coughing a lot!”
--“The girls spend all the money.”
