We don't have kids. We rarely have kids over. This weekend we had a reality check that our place (at least the kitchen) is not kid friendly. Our nephew, Keyton, and his friend stopped by on Saturday morning on their way to ride bikes in the mountains. I invited them in and chatted with them for a minute and then asked if I could get them anything. He asked what we had to drink and before we got to the fridge I was laughing. I'm not a big soda drinker therefore I don't buy a lot of soda. J is a "fountain" soda guy, apparently it is MUCH better than the bottled or canned versions - so he doesn't really buy it either. The only portable drinks we had in the fridge were five individual bottles of Perrier. It could have been the intrigue of the unknown elixir or perhaps it was the nonexistent options but they gladly accepted the Perrier. Keyton said he liked it, but I think he was just being polite and the reaction of his friend was hilarious. Fortunately, I had a box of fruit roll ups in the pantry (a huge stroke of luck - I think it was the first box I have ever purchased) and offered those up as consolation prize.

Where is your Crystal Light?! We are still working our way through the supply that you left us (sniff, sniff).
Ha! That makes me laugh. You're training your nephew at a young age to enjoy the finer things in life. :)
Kel,
my kids would have loved that snack. They are always asking grandpa Lynn for his bottled water.
Nice... now he can look cooler than all of the rest of his friends once he's in college.
Jared came home from the grocery store a few nights ago with 5 boxes of fruit roll-ups, because they were on sale at Smith's. I think he thought you had to buy 5 to get the deal.
My friend Kellie has dissapeared, and since we are so awful at talking on the phone, I just don't know what to do!!
