So last week Grandma called to let us know she had picked up a few Cars-themed items for the boys (since their fondness for them has grown into a bit of an obsession). Imagine my surprise when I opened two boxes and Lightening McQueen himself literally came expolding out of them. Things were actually TALKING to me as I tried to pull them out (where on earth do you find a talking t-shirt?). Caps, lunch kits, clothes, pj's, toys, all jam packed in those boxes! The boys are sleeping right now but when Stevie gets home we'll try to video tape the unveiling of the Cars shrine. But it seems that every time we break out the camera for what we expect to be a priceless reaction to something, they just give that blank, droopy lip stare and we end up feeling all let down. So no promises that video will make the cut. We won't be giving them all the goods at once - maybe half now, the other half when Grandma and Papa comes to visit in a couple of weeks so they can witness the reaction firsthand. That talking shirt is definitely one I'll be saving for your visit, Grandma ;). Seriously, thank you so much for everything you sent them. It's far too much but we really do appreciate it and I know the boys will too. They're going to LOVE IT! THANK YOU!!!
