The Demise of Wall E

If you recall, a few entries back, I wrote about taking my 3 grandsons on a "Date Night" which included: dinner out, the movie Wall E, and then ice cream.

Wall E came home from the theater with us that night and has occupied my youngest grandson's bedroom all summer. As the weeks got closer to the end of summer vacation, as week-end trips dwindled, and after relatives from Washington State came and went, it was time to "re-arrange" each of the boy's bedrooms before school started.

Thus, the reason, when I pulled into the driveway of my grandsons home, for Wall E lying out by the road - awaiting "trash pick-up" the next morning. Many cars stopped to look, perhaps thinking they wanted to claim Wall E, but, alas, when they saw he was made of heavy cardboard, they continued on their way.

Here are the last two pictures of Wall E.

(When I pulled into their driveway the next morning, he was GONE~!)

Good Bye, Wall E; you made 3 little boys; (especially 1; because you held his guitar every night), very happy for an entire summer!

Awwww...how sad! I bet they were bummed. But all good things must end :( We would have had to break it down into several smaller pieces and disguise it in some large trash bags around here to avoid some sad faces.
