1. "Are we there yet?" really means, "give me another snack and I'll stop talking," "what else do you have for me to do because I'm bored," "I want to watch a different movie," and "I had no idea that 'vacation' meant spending 12 hours in the car."
2. Throw up all over the kitchen floor and discussions of this matter, while eating Thanksgiving dinner, is a good way to minimize your desire to eat until your pants won't zip up.
3. Parker crying really means, Blake hit Parker, Blake looked at Parker, Blake walked towards Parker, Blake took a toy away from Parker, or Parker just didn't feel good.
4. Thanks to Michael, Blake now knows how to talk back and shout, while shaking his finger, "no, no, no, no!!"
5. "Making Mud," for a 3-year old, is much more fun than using a toilet!
6. You haven't truly experienced the lights at Temple Square unless you go with screaming children in the freezing cold and forget your camera!
7. There is nothing like experiencing a BYU victory to the Utes in Provo, Utah!
8. Tucano's is always worth the wait--especially when the store next door is giving away free prizes, food, crafts for the kids, a visit with Santa, and has cheesey middle school performers singing Christmas songs.
9. Sleeping in your own bed never felt so good--especially after sleeping on a flat air mattress.
10. No trip would be complete without tons of goodbye tears, hugs, and kisses!

Laughing. Out. Loud.
This was just too funny.
You should totally slap michael for teaching Blake to say no! That is really awful. Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun though.
For the record, I didn't teach Blake to talk back. I just told him to not hit me in the face, and he said, "no, no, no, no, no." I'm glad you finally got your Thanksgiving blog up. I've been waiting a long time.
Yes...Blake definitely traumatized Parker. I'm glad my throw-up discussions could help everyone cut back on the extra calories! It was really fun having you here...it REALLY made me want you to live closer! And watching Blake talk back to Michael was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time! LOVE YA!
(Devo Writing) I wish we had Blake on video, telling Michael what he thinks of him. That would win "America's Funniest Home Movies" for sure!

Well I for one do not believe you Michael, uncles love making trouble!!
I am so glad to know that you are all so NORMAL!!!! When you get home from a vacation you are really truly greateful for all of blessings of that we all remember. LOVE YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH AND JUST THINK - IT ISN'T OVER THERE IS CHRISTMAS. Love from Grandma and Grandpa.
It's amazing how many memories you can make in so few days together. I'm so glad we came and were able to spend Thanksgiving with all of you. You're right when you say no tripis complete without tons of goodbye tears, hugs, and kisses. I always dread that time, but treasure it when it's over. Love ya!
I LOVE being home where everyone has their own beds with bars on them. I never thought I would get sick of travel but I have.
