Our Newest Lion

When we were at the beach, Trent found this lion in the Tillamook Cheese Factory gift shop.
Trent immediately fell in love with it, and Mark and I both really liked it, so we decided to buy it. Trent was thrilled, although we explained that it wasn't a toy and would not be going in his room. Instead it sits proudly in our living room and will always be a fond reminder to Mark and me of Trent's love of lions. Trent's passion may fade, but this lion will keep it alive in our memories.

It starts with a wooden lion. And then he turns 16 and its a brand new car. :)

I can picture Trent getting really excited at the Tillamook factory. So cute!

No- it started with a smitten mom letting a little boy sneak out of his room to lay on the floor and listen to his auntie and mom talking late into the night. He is our little charmer for sure and I have a hard time saying no to him. Corbin has figured it out and sends Trent to ask for things for him. so funny.

That is so funny that Corbin picked up on it!

I remember doing the same thing with you- sending you to ask for things that I was afraid Mom and Dad would say no to. so funny
