... Jaxon has now entered the building! He will be featured in each food demonstration as he makes his way around the store. Please keep your eyes peeled for our most loyal "Demo Star". Yeah, that was my Saturday trip to Costco with my sweet dad. I forgot that I can't take him to Costco! (He's done this to me before). As we were walking into Costco I said to him "oh, my... I forgot how much I hate Costco on a Saturday". He replied, "Costco ANYTIME is a wonderful thing!" That should have been my first red flag that he was going to "participate" in upcoming events inside. I had a few things catch my eye on the way into the store that I stopped to look at, but the mad man behind the cart didn't. He was on a crash course directly to his favorite demo. I picked up the pace and followed him to the back of the store. When we came around the corner, the young cute hand-blender demonstrator said, "Jaxon, you're back!" My head whipped around to my dad and I said, "Um, dad, how many times have you been here this week?!?!?" Apparently more than twice in two days, was his answer. The happy demo man put his microphone on and got started on his presentation. 20 minutes later dad had shown probably a total of 50 people how great the hand-blender is. I just sat there watching him through HEAVY laughter. For such a shy guy he sure picks odd times to jump out of his boundaries! I have MAD love for you, dad. Thanks for making me laugh so hard. You're the best. Next time you are going to be the feature presenter at Costco I think we need to let the entire family aware of the date and time of your appearance. It will be a moment to remember for us all.
