A Few More Things

Mike and I drove to Flagstaff yesterday and a portion of our conversation included laughing about things TJei has said. Driving along the Interstate, Mike suddenly broke into laughter and recounted the following...

"TJei said to me, Grandpa, Grandma can...you can, too!" and he laughed while explaining he had let go of the steering wheel to scratch his ears. TJei had excitedly proclaimed, "Grandma can drive without holding the spinning wheel and you can too!" Maybe she's had too many renditions of Princess Aurora's birthday dilemma.

As the sun lowered in the sky and an antelope stood in the road on the drive between Holbrook and St. Johns, we were reminded of another funny from TJei. We had been driving back from Show Low and had seen several antelope gazing along the rolling hills just west of town. Suddenly, TJei squealed out. She was the first to see one of the beautiful animals come into view, "There's a cantaloupe! I saw it first." Recalling the excitement and miswording still brings a smile. :)
