Fun Stuff: In the hotel room in Disney World, Kayla and I were up playing dominoes and Jordan and Somer had already fallen asleep. I had been trying to say a word the way Kayla says it the whole time being in Disney, ‘OHHH SHOOOT’. WhenKayla and I were almost asleep, Kayla yelled OH SHOOOT and woke up Jordan and Somer. It was the funniest thing.. After that, we went on for a good 30 minutes just yelling OH SHOOT.
