An update, my friends, and sunglasses

To all my besties -
This post has a specific intent in mind.  I would like to cover the three topics summarized so nicely (if I do say so myself) in the subject line above.  And with no further ado, here we go.

1. Update: Remember THIS post?  (if you're not tech savvy like myself, click the word "THIS" and it will take you there).  Well, I have been getting some criticism lately for not updating with which car we took and how the story ended.  The story pretty much ended about 35 minutes after I published the post.  As usual I had my monitor on in mom and dad's room so I could hear all the juicy stuff they talk about after I "go to bed."  Allow me to do a role-play -

Dad: So, I figured out what the difference in price is going to be if we drive the Honda over the Toyota.
Mom:  Oh, really?  That's nice. (insert playing it cool)
..3 minutes pass...
Dad: Do you want to know what the difference is?
Mom: Sure
..insert embarrassed smirk on Dad's face...
Dad: One million and Thirty dollars.
Mom: Bahahahahahahaha - Thirty dollars? That's IT?? THIRTY DOLLARS??
Dad: (chuckling) shoot, I thought it was going to be more than that!!! 
Mom: Well, since you told me I can make the decision I choose we take the Toyota
Dad: That thirty dollars can buy us a lot of fruit you know!!!

And so the Toyota we took - I mean, who cares if it had like 13 recalls on it the next day..a sticky gas pedal is NOTHING compared to the leg room and comfort we had :).

2. My friends: Mom's been taking some pics lately of my friends.  This is really a shameless plug for mom to say if you want some pictures taken of your kids..she'd LOVE to practice on them!!! This first set are pics of my girlfriend's sisters (and my girl is in a few of them too!!)

    

Now meet my "big brothers" Baxter and Owen and the Purdy family!



Lastly.  Sunglasses.  Although mom has been snapping away at my cute friends, she neglected to take any photos of me on her camera this week.  Real nice.  However, she has stopped me a few times during the course of the past few days and asked for a few candid camera phone shots.  I still look just as cute in the camera phone shots but the difference is mom never uses a flash on her real camera but with the camera phone it's like the paparazzi is after me.  I can't keep my eyes open to save my life!  Nevertheless - enjoy.  PS. The Broncos jersey was in celebration of draft day.  Ever since that day mom has been telling me my name is now Grayson Tebow - I don't totally get it but Tebow has a nice ring to it...


Oh and if you couldn't tell by the pics. I wave now..bye bye and hello.  Just like please, it allows me to get away with a lot.  When mom calls for me to come to her and I choose to go the other way, so long as I wave "bye bye" as I'm making a run crawl for it..she can only get but so mad.  I'm working on blowing kisses..I'm pretty sure once I get that nailed down I'm never going to get in trouble again.
