We did not do that and yes, I ordered a freakin' pizza and it went to our old house. Ended up being a great week for the new owners, they got a package from us with all of the spare keys we forgot to give them and the garage remote AND they got a large pizza with a 2 litre of soda.

Ayden (2) chooses the dvd and turns on the video and tv. Bowen (6) turns on dvd and stereo and puts dvd in. Then they set the volume and curl up and watch. They are addcited to Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends.... you guys have a spin off called Shiny Time Station I think. Me? I have to ask Bowen what buttons to press most of the time! I have play, stop, pause and skip down pat. The rest.... it eludes me. And myy Dad has told my mother she has to write dirsections for all appliances before she dies, cause in 55 years, he hasnt got past learning anything more than on/off and change channels!!!! Is it wrong of me on Saturday nights to leave sippy cups, containers of breakfast cereal, a bowl of fresh fruit and the dvd of the week on the coffee table? In the HOPE that come 5am Sunday morning they will just put the damn dvd on, eat, drink and leave me sleep for one more hour? LOL Yvonne P.S Animaniacs are the greatest. Cancel that. Make it Fraggle Rock, Muppets and then Animaniacs! Ahhh my pair have a perfect system worked out. Ayden (2) chooses the dvd and turns on the video and tv.

He was 2 at the time. I have that Animaniacs Sing a Long video! I bought it long before I had kids, just because I loved the Animaniacs. We now have Season 1 on DVD.
