Before this day is over, I just have to say one more time to my fellow P's... happy TEN YEAR anniversary! Yes, it does make me feel a wee bit old when I realize that wonderful night was ten whole years ago. But it was enough of a thrill to last a lifetime. I still get wide-eyed thinking about that acreaming, smoke-filled opening, being squirted with a watergun by the coolest boys we'd ever dreamed of, holding up our "Kiss Me at Midnight" poster, leaving the Hardrock menu (with our phone numbers), mouthing every single word to every single song. It was TOTALLY worth an entire morning in line at Tower Records and endless hours of practicing choreography. Yes, there were some tragic moments to- like my decision to wear that lime green turtleneck and the fact that we froze standing outside waiting on them to load the wrong bus, but we've grown up a lot since then. Ten years, one sweet husband, and three precious kids later... it is STILL one of the best nights of my life. Plus, I know not-so-deep-down, we are still those giddy, giggly, bright-eyed girls at heart.
I love you ladies!!!
Our kids were SO excited to get their gator from their grandparents for Christmas last night (almost as excited as Mommy and Daddy were to get a weekend getaway for TWO!). They are all definitely going to need some driving lessons- they didn't know what to do with that much power! The funniest thing was finally getting Evan to keep the wheel turned and his foot on the pedal and they just continuously drove in one big circle sqealing and waving everytime they passed us! It was too cute. And actually- it did get even funnier... right about the time Brynn fell out (if someone was going to fall out, it should be her- she'll pop right back up). Anyway, in an effort to get Evan to stop so we could put B back in her seat, my brother stood in front of the gator and pulled E's foot off the gas. That was his first mistake. His 2nd was not getting out of the way before Evan put his foot back ON the gas. Brandon rode on top of the hood for a little bit before trying a spread-eagle manuever to go over the gator, before getting stuck on top of Layla's head! Oh my word! The hilarity of it all! I am so grateful that my little point-and-shoot camera has video capabilities and that I was able to record the whole thing! (I am having trouble getting Blogger to load it at the moment, but I'll keep trying.) My batteries were low too, hence the psycho flash and blurryness of some of the pics. Oh, what a way to start off our Christmas! Good times =)
