The husband got tickets for the Giants game today and he brought Evan and Josh with him. I got to spend the afternoon alone with Matt, and I let him choose the activity. He chose lunch at Chili's and a movie. I snuck in a quick run through Costco first and we had a very nice day. No, change that, we had a delightful day. I choose delightful because I find that when I am alone with Matt this thing comes over me where I just think everything he says is hilarious. We've been listening to Comedy on satellite radio and Matt has a genius comedic delivery that I can not resist.
In Costco, today, I saw a man pass me with about 20 industrial sized packages of raisins in his cart. I whispered "Matt" and discreetly pointed in his direction. Matt lowered his head and in an Asian accent whispered back "I like raisins." Well, that got me giggling like a school girl, and I couldn't stop. This inspired Matt to work raisins into everything we saw for the rest of the day which means I spent the whole day with the giggles over raisins. Even right now as I write this post I giggle to myself every time I type out the word raisins.
On the way home from the movies a wild turkey (yes, there are wild turkeys in this neck of suburbia) ran out into the road in front us. I slammed on the brakes and yelled "Run, run for your life little turkey. Thanksgiving is upon us!" because I was trying to be as funny as Matt, but I wasn't. When I turned my unfunny self towards Matt and he said "raisins" and another round of giggles ensued.

I love those days when you can just laugh with your kid(s) just because you find the same things funny!
