Despicable Me and the Drive Home

  About a year ago Rock acquired a picture of a minion from the movie Despicable Me and carried it everywhere.  The minions are little yellow guys with goggles.  They look like this: Click here

Well, one of Rock's presents was a tool set with safety goggles.  He's been wearing them everywhere, and his aunt Lindsey thinks he looks just like one of the minions.
 He's the cutest little minion I've ever met.  Now if I could just convince him to be my minion and do my bidding... 
Our drive home went well, and for the most part the passengers behaved themselves.  There was some crying in the front passenger's seat, but that was cured with a McDonald's hot fudge sundae.  When we got home the boys got to open their presents from Mama Rae and Papa Dale and their aunts and uncle Nick.  One of their coolest presents was a Cosmo the Cougar getup.
Rock has been wearing it nonstop and growling at people.  Then he'll take off the hood and be a good cougar and pretend to hug you...then he puts the hood back on and mauls you.  Then he plays with his toys.
Our drive went really, really well until we got to Blewett Pass and ran into freezing rain.  It turned into snow and then in Manson we found giant snowflakes.
It was really pretty.
The snow was so pretty that it put Ryker to sleep in his car seat.  He looks mad because he didn't get to do a sleepover with Rock, but he's a baby so he doesn't remember that now.

  1. They make Christmas time all that more enjoyable. No mention that Rock has moved out and no longer lives with his parents?

  2. I love all of Rock's different outfits - he must have a great imagination! Your snow pictures are so pretty, too bad it didn't stick around a little longer.
