the music truck

When my nephew, Ethan, was little the music truck would drive through their neighborhood. It wasn't until Ethan was much older that he finally learned that the music truck sold ice cream and was generally known as the ice cream truck, not the music truck.

So Rachel has also grown quite fond of the music truck that drives through our neighborhood almost every afternoon (she has yet to learn that she could actually stop the music truck and buy some ice cream, and we plan to keep it that way for as long as possible). She gets so excited just hearing the music, and stops whatever she is doing to watch it drive by.

A couple of days ago a different music truck drove by. We knew it was different because the songs it was playing were different than the couple of songs we usually hear. It played Old MacDonald, London Bridge, and a couple of other well known children's songs. And then, out of nowhere, it played "O Come All Ye Faithful!" What????

(and then it played the theme from "Love Story," also a very uncharacteristic song for a music truck to play, but O Come All Ye Faithful definitely takes the cake as the weirdest music truck song ever!)
