The other night Ashley and I treated ourselves to something nice. Dinner at Costco. Shut up. It’s good. It’s a buck fitty (not a typo) for a huge honkin’ slice of surprisingly good cheese pizza. We of course had Chandler in tow and we plopped him into the shopping cart and let him pretend he was honey baked ham. It’s a game he likes to play. 

Anyway, after dinner we headed out into the jungles of Costco to hunt for food and supplies. The essentials. You know, like the largest pack of Mt Dew Costco has to offer. We got a 6 pack of Mt Dew Kegs. 

We had everything we came for and were just about to pick a line to wait in when my wife said, “Should we get that tent and the tunnel thing over there for Chandler?” Before she could finish the sentence I was 3 aisles away investigating said tent and tunnel thing. It was a tent, a tunnel, and 100 plastic balls like the kind you see in a Chuck E Cheese ball pit. I mentioned it was pretty cool. My wife said it was only $35. I grabbed it. 

It didn’t seem that big when it was on display. I thought surely it would fit right on the carpet where Chandler plays all day. It was a little bigger than I expected. Here is a video of me building it while Chandler helps. The song is “A Good Idea at the Time” by OK GO. I think it is fitting.
