"Are we going to the cat pool?" "Preston, what's the cat pool?" "You know, the one that we went to." It took us a few days to figure out that he was talking about the kiddie pool at the Rec Center, which he understood as the "kitty pool."

"Mom, when are we going to Lost Vegas?" Preston thinks that that Vegas is lost, probably because we've never been.
