A different generation

While watching the Olympics one night, we told the kids they needed to get to bed. Of course, the whining and complaining ensued and we tried to quiet their concerns of missing the Olympics by telling them we would 'tape it'. Blake then walked over to the drawer, pulled out the scotch tape and yanked a giant piece off the roll. I said, "Blake, what are you doing? We don't just waste tape like that?" while he simultaneously proceeded to talk over to the TV and stick it on there. 

"Mommy, I taped it"

(I took these pictures the next morning)

Of course my kids would have NO IDEA what a tape was!! Or that in the 'olden days' as I am sure the 80s and 90s will one day be referred to, we actually used to listen to the radio and wait to hear our favorite song, hoping that we hit the 'record' button in time to get the entire song. And 'please be kind and rewind' on the Blockbuster VHS tapes will never be funny to them. And many more.....
