Crystal Ball

Preston bought himself pets tonight...two (surprisingly cute) girl mice. We were discussing the magnitude of this decision in the store, when it dawned on me I was missing a very big point...

So Hon, where exactly are you going to put this cage (in your cram-packed, full of toys and junk room)?

Response: Weeeelllll, we're not at home and I can't see the future. Touche.

Gametime Fun

Playing CatchPhrase with P when he gets "spill the beans." Ten seconds later: "OH! I get it!! SPILL THE BEANS!!" as he wafts his hand behind his butt. :-D Yep! That's our kid!

Biology

Albert took Preston fishing today.

Dad, do you know how to tell which end is the worm's head? Just rub its belly and when it does this *arches back* the side that lifts up is the head.

Also, big shout out to hip hop...it made him a better fisherman.

Artistic License

As if a comment is necessary, I think it's important to note that this is (ironically) a Dallas Cowboy who just made a touchdown...I would say from personal perspective an earlier era - oh, 1990's. 
AND since I forgot to grab the ACTUAL picture from the restaurant table (shame), this is the last...so many puns.

Crackers of All Kinds

At JCPenny's -

P: Mom! Look at all the Christmas stuff! It's on SALE!!
Me: Yep, very pretty.
P: Can I have some?
Me: Some what?
P: Some Christmas stuff!
Me: No.
P: But look at the giant nut crackers! I loooove nut crackers.
Me: I know, but you already have two...a small one and a big one. I think that's enough nut crackers.
P: [walking over to a 3ft tall snowman nut cracker] Yes. But I don't have any SNOW crackers.

And I quote:

"I just snarkled when I laughed!"

Hotel California

We visited my sister in CA over Christmas break. Their apartment complex is really nice. They have indoor entrances, live on the bottom floor across from the gym, and have a vending machine just down the hall. Preston refered to their home as the hotel all weekend. I'm pretty sure he still thinks they live in one, even though we tried to explain it was an apartment.
