Lily & Dad

So, the big thing in our life since we've been in America has been Connor's car. We pretty much bought it straight out in the beginning. Like our second day in the States or something. Connor got a Toyota Camry, 2001. It's a nice tan color with a spoiler and a sun roof. So pretty sweet car. Also it has nice speakers. Connor and I have had our share of driving the car around America. We've driven it all over. Connor still hasn't given it a name, but maybe he'll name it soon. Along with the awesome car Connor got, he got an iPhone 4. That thing is so cool. It can do like everything. So, he bought a gps for his iPhone.

We tried it out the first day we got it. You have a choice to either choose a man's voice or a woman's voice. Of course we chose a woman's. Hahaha. We eventually settled on the name "Lily". It has a nice jolly ring to it I guess. Whatever, it's a nice fit and everything. Sometimes when we go places though we can't decide wether we want to use Lily, the map, or our own brains. Sometimes we use all three and get confused. Lily will say go one way, but the map will say another...


One day we were driving and Dad thought he knew the way, but Lily was directing him a different route. Connor was driving and so he was confused on who to follow. Dad was telling him to go one way and Lily was saying another. Connor followed Dad's directions and we ended up lost and going the completely wrong way. Then we used Lily and decided that maybe we should've gone the other way... Connor forced Dad to apologize to Lily. He did, but from that day forth there has always been some unresolved feelings there. They were never friends, but now they grew much further apart. Sadness.

Lily has been an awesome addition to Connor's car nonetheless. I think of one the coolest thing Lily can do is tell you where the closest Starbucks is. Another awesome addition to Connor's car has been all of the random toys we buy to put inside. Hahaha. When we were garage saling in Oklahoma we bought him two awesome sheep to put in his car. Connor doesn't like it when my Dad and I buy random stuff for his car, but I think it's hilarious. The one thing that my Dad and I were always looking for when were garage saling is something to hang on Connor's rearview mirror. I've always seen people hang things from their rearview mirror. It can really be anything. Something that they care about, something random, really anything. Check out what my Dad found for Connor's car...

One day when no one wasn't looking Connor got rid of her... Oh well, I guess it was going to happen sooner or later.
