And an Alexis quote

November 30th, 2008 · 2 Comments

We are all finishing a very yummy dinner of turkey, gravy, sweet potato casserole, and cranberry sauce.  Alexis really liked the cranberry sauce, but apparently not enough to remember what it was called.

Alexis: May I have… um… may I have some more… um….

(pause)

Alexis: May I have some more New Zealand?

Joel gave her a questioning look.

Alexis: Well, I couldn’t remember what it was called, so I called it New Zealand.

Yes, my children are goofs.

    The real question is: Did Joel know what she was talking about?
    It’s when everyone understands that New Zealand = cranberry sauce that I think your whole family has gone over the edge… together.
