Three funny things....

1. We were in the car (just Craig, Jordan, Logan and I) and Craig was talking about a guy in Portland that was in the news who was affiliated with the Nazi's in the 1940's. Logan asked what 'affiliated' meant and to simplify it a bit, we told him that the guy had ties with the Nazi's. He got a disgusted look on his face and said, 'What kind of Moron would wear a Nazi tie!?' A classic! This story will be around for years!!

2. We drove to The Dalles (about an hour away) last Saturday for Logan's soccer game. It was a little bit cold and windy there and I was getting blankets and chairs out of the back of the car. I only had three beach chairs and figured that two of the boys could sit on the grass on those bleacher cushion things. We have two nice ones with backs and buckles and Javier looked at them with a very confused look. Finally, with complete seriousness, he asked, 'Tell me why we need life jackets at a soccer game?' It was hilarious! I guess you had to be there!

3. Corey loves the commercial for Snickers candy bars with the old Viking guys singing 'Green Sleeves' in the car. He gets weird and starts singing it sometimes, making up half the words. The other day he was singing and said the word 'menstrual', several times. Finally, Jordan stopped him and said, 'Corey! The word isn't menstrual....it's minstral!' Corey, of course, argued a bit (because who likes their younger brother telling them they're wrong!) When he realized what he'd been saying, all three of us could NOT stop laughing and had tears in our eyes. Way too funny! (especially since in this house, I don't think the word mentrual has EVER been used!)
