Home

Wife and Mookie got home last night from their Canada run. They were immediately attacked - in the most loving way possible - by two very happy dogs while we unloaded the car. There were some interesting things to ooh and ahh over as they unpacked. I'm not going to steal Mookie's thunder, so I'll give you an obscure movie reference as a hint:

Holly Hunter and Richard Dreyfuss starred in a movie a few years ago called Always. He bought her a birthday present. What was her reaction? (I tried to find a link to the sound clip online. No luck.)

I was surprised. Pleasantly, but surprised for sure.

As for bearing gifts, they bought me the deluxe Monty Python's Holy Grail on DVD. Sweet! And speaking of sweet, they also stopped at the best damn ice cream place in the world (Hovermales - pronounced Hoo-ver-malls) on the way home and picked up a to-go order for oldest daughter and I. It's an hour away on a light traffic day, so we don't get there often, but since they were driving by on the way home and had a cooler in the car... Yum.

It's good to have them back.
