I can't believe that I am actually doing this! I was a big nay sayer of blogs, so I guess by starting of for myself that makes me a hypocrite! Oh well I guess I have seen the benefit of keeping a log of the goings on of my family. So here it goes. Today Aivree and I had girls day out because she met her reading goal at school. She decided that she wanted to go see the
Hannah Montana 3-D movie. I procrastinated as long as possible, but decided I had better do what I had promised. So I decided to check the movie listings to see when it was playing. To my horror yesterday was the last day it was playing at the theater by my house. By the time I checked it yesterday, all the times were already over for the day. I thought oh great I am a loser mom who put this promise off too long. So I made a mad scramble and checked all theaters in the east valley. Lucky for me it was playing for one more day at the theater out by Julies house ( that must mean there are more nice moms out there than over here!!!) So being the good mom that I am I gave all the kids a big list of chores that had to be done before they could do anything fun today. Needless to say Aivree worked like a mad woman so that she could go to the 11:00 movie today. I don't know why I didn't think of something like this sooner, it was totally worth it. She usually doodles around while everyone else works, but not today!!! I will have to admit that I was not super excited to see this particular show, but I have to admit, it was actually pretty good. It was way fun to just be with Aivree and see how much she loved it. I must also confess that I have a problem..... I think that there must be something wrong with me because anytime I take my kids to things like this or something I know that they are way excited to do I end up boobing like a baby. I swear it must be a defect in my genes or something. For example when Parker and Kelcie were little I took them to the mall because magic school bus was having a little free show there. As soon as the music started, I started to well up with tears and it was all I could do not to fully start sobbing!! Then again today, as soon as the music started, so did the tears. Luckily I had 3-D glasses on and Aivree was paying no attention to me. So she had no clue. I was thinking about taking Dylan to the Wiggles concert in April, but after today... I think I wouldn't be able to control my tear ducts! Sorry Dylan! Although he will probably thank me later. I think he might be embarrassed at some point that the wiggles was his favorite show. So that has been my day so far. I don't know how much more excitement I can take for the day!!!
