(It starts with a family driving a car. The family is my family, it shows, me, my mom, my dad and my little sister, Sophia. We pass a sign that says You are now entering Royal Woods)

Dad: Well, this is it. Royal Woods, Michigan.

Mom: I still don’t think we should have left Maryland for this.

Dad: Come on, honey. You said you’ve been wanting to go to Michigan for a long time.

Mom: Yeah, you’re right. Kids, we’re almost there.

(Cuts to me and Sophia)  Sophia: Oh boy! I can’t wait until we get there! How about you, Nolan?
