Worth The While

She Melts My Heart!

Although Mommy gets up for work at 2:15am, there are occasional perks.  On Friday night I scored two media tickets for "CATS" at the Palace Theatre in Columbus.  (This is where Larry thanks his lucky stars we had at least one girl to get him off the hook.)  Lara was VERY excited to get dressed up and stay out late with me.  Remington however, was HIGHLY upset she did not get to go.  But a movie and microwave popcorn quickly took her mind off our absence.

 

If you've never seen the show, the actors/cats roam the audience from time to time.  Pictures are frowned upon during the production BUT... at intermission one feline wandered over to our aisle seat and Lara had the opportunity to give her a pet.  Mommy also managed to dig the camera out of the bottom of her purse JUST in time.

 

Once the Second Act began, Lara whispered in my ear "Mommy, I'm never washing this hand again!"  It was the most perrrrfect night for me.

 

 

Halloween 2010

Trick-or-Treat night this year was fah-reezing!  But once Lara got over the fact that warm clothes HAD to go under her Daphne (from Scooby Doo) costume, we had a great time.  She went from lots-of-tears to skipping in a matter a minutes.  Remington knew from the get-go she wanted to be Tinker Bell this year.  She absolutely loved tailing her big sister around the neighborhood.  She only wiped out twice.  After collecting all the loot, Aunt Pam taught both girls how to eat "Pixie Stix" and "Fun Dip".  Yum!

 
This year was the first year Larry and I have actually dressed up for a Halloween party.  The theme was a TV or movie character from any decade.  Once again shout out to Aunt Pam--she got us two great Roman costumes from her church.  We thought we'd be from one of our favorite HBO series:  "Rome".  But no one at the party had ever watched the show.  SO THEN... I was Russell Crowe with those killer abs in "Gladiator" and LW was a Roman guard. 

 
Grand usually comes over and trick-or-treats with us.  But she was in Boca Raton, FL on Beggar's Night this year.  So the following Sunday we went to her house after church and look who was there:

Pam had a BIG Birthday on 10/10/10.  This is from the party at our house the day before the BIG day.  Aren't we a fun bunch?  No doubt we're VERY lucky.
