It all started with this line.. "Mom pretend you are a Grandma and I am your son." OK. He proceeded to go into the explanation that he has come over to give me a TV for Mother's Day. (Can you tell what Dave got his mother for MD?)
He then also proceeded to tell his wife that he didn't get her anything. (Hmmm. I wonder where he heard that one!!)
I yelled from the other room to get his wife a gift for heavens sake!
He bought her a football and proceeded to tell me she was playing on a women's football team. I started laughing and started asking more questions and got an entire family history from this little guy. Here is my family in 25 years...
- Josh married a girl named Taia and they have 4 kids. 3 girls and 1 boy. He is a police officer. They live next door to me. Josh served a mission to Russia. He graduated from a college in Greenland.?
- Aaron married a girl named Savannah and they have 5 kids. 3 boys and 2 girls. He makes movies. They live next door to Joe and his wife. Aaron went on a mission to Chicago and he graduated from BYU! Savannah is a Primary President.
- Jonathan married a girl named Taylor and they have 6 kids. 3 boys and 3 girls. He is a computer guy. They live in China and they don't speak English. Jonathan went on his mission to Venezuela and went to the U.
- Alex married a girl named Hannah and they have 2 kids. 1 boy and 1 girl. He is a zoo keeper. They live in Texas. But he comes and visits all day every day. Alex went on a mission to Peru and he went to BYU.
- Joe married a girl named Grace. They have 2 boys named David and Andrew and 1 girl named Madison. Grace is a doctor and Joe is a worker and he works next door to his dad, Dave and they go to lunch together everyday. He took the day off today to be with me but Dad wouldn't. (typical) Joe went on his mission to New York. He graduated from BYU. His wife went on a mission to Argentina and graduated from BYU. They are pretty happy right now because they are going to have another baby soon.
- Dave did take some time off from work to go on a mission with me to Africa. We are very happy and we love go shopping together and buy flowers. (We hate shopping and we don't buy flower very often so things are obviously going to change.) We also like to go out to dinner and go to church.
So that is my future according to Joe. I can't believe how fast time has just flown by! It seems like just yesterday they were all running around driving their mom insane!
All in all it sounds pretty nice except I don't really want Jonathan to live in China. Maybe he is just there temporarily. I miss him and his family. It makes me a little sad that I don't see them very often. I appreciate that Alex comes in from TX to see me every day. All day.
So now you know what Joe does on his day off.
I gotta run. I am suddenly interested in learning Chinese.

I'm pretty sure Joe and Ryan are both "in love" with the same girl. Today at lunch Ryan was telling me that he has a secret admirer and her name is Grace.
HANDSOME boys! What a fun little story to witness. You should investigate all the girlfriends of the boys now...
That is stinkin CUTE! Although I am a little disappointed he didn't say that he was married to Izzie Barlow. I thought was really going to work out. :)
That is so cute, I can hardly stand it!
so So So So So funny. Love that Joe Joe. Speaking of Joe, we went to ice cream last night at our Realtor's house. Her husband's name is Joe. When I told Ben his name, Ben said, "No, you're not Joe Joe! Mom, where is Joe Joe!?".
Lydia, on the other hand, was so excited to see "Joe Joe" she just clapped and said "Yay!! Yay!! Joe Joe!!".
Love it!! Especially that your one son can no longer speak English!! Also the daily all day visits from TX... who is running the zoo?!
This is so great!
I laughed so hard! I love the one where he only speaks chinese. So great.
I love that you had so many graduate from BYU. Weird that your one boy that is a huge BYU fan graduated from the U. Also, I am so excited for you to love to shop... we can shop together Kell, just think!
I love Joe Joe!!
