Duh...didn't you know that!

We've been busy this weekend. Friday night, we went to the Angel game for Mormon night at Angel Stadium. Always a fun tradition. One: because you can totally tell everyone is Mormon with their bags of costco snacks, bermuda shorts, big families and NO BEER. I'm still shocked they let us do it every year. They must loose money when we come. But, second, and most importantly: every year Chad's Dad sings "Take me out to the ballgame" during the 7th inning stretch. We love it.

As we were getting ready for the game this conversation took place.

"Mom, I don't want to wear a long sleeve shirt."
"Alexis, it's going to be colder at the game and that is what you are going to wear."
"Yes, Mom."
(We are working on respect right now and when an instruction is given that is the only acceptable answer.)

We go to the bathroom to do her hair and she says this:
"Mom, do you know why I didn't want to wear this shirt?"
"Why?"
"Because it's so hot and I really wanted to wear a short sleeve shirt and bring a jacket to the game. Then if I was cold I could put on the jacket. You know...that's the whole reason why Jesus created jackets. So if you are hot you can take it off and if you are cold you can put it on. That's why."


Her voice was so sweet the whole time how could I deny letting her change her clothes. She cracks me up when she says these things. The way she said it made it sound like jackets were created in the beginning with Adam and Eve.

Just goes to show, the new generation is definately on a more spiritual note; that they can actually know jackets were created with Adam and Eve. WHo knew?

Too cute!
