The Myers' Family

A couple of weeks ago when we were in route back to "our other house", aka Troy and Lisa's house, the kids began a hilarious conversation. Somehow Alexis began to tell Brent a story of seeing a giant bird in our driveway. Of course Brent asked if it was a Pterodactyl? The conversation grew and grew. They got so into it. The fed off each other's questions. They went into great detail about this imaginary bird. I bit my lip trying not to laugh. I savored the minutes of conversation and not "He touched me!" "He laughed at me!" "Alexis looked at me!" "That is MINE!". I continued to drive and listen. By the time I got to Troy and Lisa's the bird was confirmed as a Pterodactyl and Brent was hunting it with his 22 and Alexis was hiding under her bed. They continued on with their discussion even after we settled in at the "other house". Well, it was short lived. Someone touched something that belonged to the other one and the moments of camaraderie were over. I did snap this picture Christmas morning. See it proves they love each other, or it proves they listen when their mother threatens to rip the presents out of their hands if they do not sit next to each other and smile. Love, it was about the love not the threat!!!
