June 24th is Coming

What's happening on that day, you ask?  Well, hello!  It's the premier date for Cars 2.  A hugely important day for a certain blonde-haired boy who owns over 100 of the die-cast Cars character cars and has his bedroom covered top-to-bottom in Cars paraphernalia.  Anderson is SO excited about the new movie.  It will be his first movie theater experience and he can't wait.  He already knows many of the new characters' names and, yes, even already owns some of them. 

So, imagine Anderson's surprise when a HUGE box literally showed up as a surprise on our front porch last week with Lightning McQueen plastered all over it.  Anderson was actually speech-less.  He was SO excited to find out that inside the giant cardboard monstrosity was indeed a Lightning McQueen car just for him to drive.  Thanks for the awesome surprise, Nana B!

Quite possibly his best smile ever captured on film.  :)

And of course, wanting to be fair, Nana B also had a "Lil' Lightning McQueen" sent for Everett which arrived a few days later.  Everett LOVES the fact that he has something like Big Brother.  He can't quite steer yet, but watching him (13 months old and all his glory) riding in his car makes me laugh so hard. 

So, thanks again, Nana B for what I'm sure is to be endless hours of fun and excitement from these cars!  Reese and I are very much living vicariously through their happiness!
