Special Request Posting (plus the winter gets a little boring...)

Okay, I wasn't going to post this because I'm a little embarrassed by the whole situation, but someone asked that I do, and it is a pretty funny story, and my hopes are that someone else has done something way more embarrassing? Or maybe of equal embarrassment (please?). So Tom was in town for the weekend, and we decide it will be fun to go to an Admirals game (that's a minor league hockey team). Probably a recipe for disaster from the get go. So we go to the sparsely populated game and we are being good hockey fans (you know, cheering for fights, drinking lots o beer...). So the game is over, and everyone is in good spirits, when we start exiting the stadium and low and behold, who do we see? The Admirals Mascot. Perfect. A photo op at it's best. So we quickly run up to the mascot (drunkenly stumble, your choice) and request a Photo Op with the local mascot. An usher quickly volunteers to take the picture and tells us to line up quickly. We do as asked politely, and at this point, I notice Tom is standing off to the side, just watching, which is a little abnormal but we weren't going to stop the Top Model Photo shoot...So we get our pic (hastily) and run off to continue our night. As we are walking away, Tom says, "Did you guys even notice the 100 little kids that were in line to meet the mascot?" Yeah, that's right, take a closer look at the sign in the background, "Join Roscoe's Crew Kids Club" Yes, we cut off a 100 little children to get OUR pic taken with the mascot..it's not even a good pic! Somehow, no one noticed the children..seriously..we had no idea. And then Megan makes it even creepier by going to the mascot..."Soooo...what's your real name?" At which point we should have been taken out back and banned forever from minor league hockey...Sorry Kids!!!

Preggo My Leggo!!!!

Okay, so this is a little belated, but we just wanted to be sure, but CONGRATULATIONS to my sister and her husband Karl who are Pregnant!! This baby DEFINITELY already has finger nails :-) Everyone say congratulations to them and I get to be an aunty!! How exciting!!

Also, please go here and say hi to my lovely cousin and her new blog. Throat clearing..friends who said they would start one....

HAPPY DISASTOROUS NEW YEAR

HAPPY NEW YEARS!! I have been slightly neglectful on the blog front, and I am just getting to my New Years drama now!! Let me photo doc you through the night. We went to the Knick, and had tons of fun. Here is a shot of the girls looking decent and dressy before hand. Everything seems Kosher? Right? Wrong...

The night progresses, everyone is having fun. We have a DJ and a dance floor (and lots of booze). I think this video will demonstrate the state we were in when the tragedy happened. Why, may you ask, do I have a video? Well watch for yourself...

I know you can barely see it, but this is Emily, Dave and I posing for a picture, and yelling for the photographer to take the pic. Hmm...camera on video mode you say? I don't think so..PRESS THE BUTTON. (i'm hoping the audio works). Next up, the Picture our genius asses were trying to take...

Okay, photo taken. But I think your getting a good image of where we are in the night when tragedy strikes. That's right, I broke my phone (well and there was also some glass in my feet?). Yes, AGAIN. I dropped my phone and the screen went completely blank. All contact with the outside world lost. What a cold, lonely New Years....(jk). But seriously, it was worth it because we had a great time. I finally got a new phone on Saturday, but if anyone tried to call me in that week, I did not get your messages and I had no clue, so keep trying! I have more exciting news to come too (I'm slowly weening myself back into contact with the outside world...)
