A couple weeks ago, Keido and I took off for Idaho to go to Holland's wedding, spend time with the family, and give Boyd a chance to sleep and study for his MCAT. Like always, I can't take Keido anywhere without him making friends with someone. On our second flight, from Chicago to Salt Lake, we sat next to a woman with a four year old daughter. They were very kind and really enjoyed having Keido's entertainment. I have to say I was thankful for their entertainment too. The little girl liked rubbing Keido's head and giving him toys to play with. I enjoyed making puppets out of barf bags with the little girl while Keido was sleeping. All in all, it was a pretty enjoyable flight.
When we landed, the little girl decided to she wanted to give Keido an extra special goodbye. She leaned over and gave him a cute little kiss. Keido was expressionless, but I know deep down in that little manly heart, he thoroughly enjoyed it:)
I was also surprised to find that the people in front of us and behind us had enjoyed Keido's company as well. A little boy with the biggest grin I've ever seen came up to us and asked what Keido's name was. I told him and the little boy said, "Does he like vegetables?" I said, "Yes, I think so." Then the boy said, "He better because his name rhymes with potato and tomato." Then he burst out laughing. I thought it was clever for someone who looked like he was seven.
Idaho was wonderful!!! We had such a good time with everyone. For the fourth of July we went to the Driggs celebration, watched a hypnotist, and swam at the Rexburg waterpark. I also got a personal kyaking lesson from Bruce, the studly man. I have a whole new respect for people who can eskimo roll. I tried my best until I had braille all over my body, and never actually did it. I am determined to try again one day though.
