We Finally Caught the Ice Cream Truck

I've had some cash stashed on my dresser for over a week now waiting for the ice cream truck. Shania was disappointed that he never came by last week. She actually called last night to see if he had ever shown up. It is very unusual for us to go 2 days without hearing that all familiar music. We have never taken advantage of the tasty treats, because he never seems to come at a good time, and last week we wanted him to come and he didn't show up.

Tonight, Jamie jumped up out of the chair when he heard the ice cream truck in a distance. He was in the subdivision across the way and we went out and waiting with anticipation. Here are all the kids in their pajamas waiting patiently (or not so patiently) for him to come our way.





Well, after a few minutes of waiting and excited children, we noticed that he turned the wrong direction! So, what does any good parent do? Well, chase the ice cream truck man down, of course. So, we all jumped in the van with our windows rolled down trying to locate it. We found him a couple of blocks down and was able to buy the kids some treats.





The kids were excited and as we drove back home, Chloe said, "I caught him...ice cream truck!"
