Bon Jovi or Bust!

So after weeks of hinting and begging (literally) Dave agreed to purchase tickets for us to see Bon Jovi in concert! Yes, April 4th at the Honda Center in Anaheim. Unlike the Def Leppard, Styx, Foreigner concert, we are heading off by ourselves. I absolutely can't wait. Dave actually was going to surprise me for Christmas with tickets but him thinking we needed front row seats couldn't find anything for less than $600.00. Little did he know I would settle for $65.00 tickets. Anyways, can't wait to go, keep you all posted when it comes!

Science Fair Madness

Ok, so when your children are young you look forward to all the things they are going to be doing. I think secretly we can't wait till they take that first dance class, play on a sports team, have fun sleepovers with friends and of course go to school. We all think, FREEDOM right! Wrong...hate to break it to you rookies ( I mean that in the best way) it's not all that it is cracked up to be. When your child starts school, you get to start school too...Yes, I think by time I am done, I will have attended 52 years of school. Isn't that great! So, this week we are knee deep in our and yes I said "our", Science project. You know the kind that..are optional but if you don't do you will not get an "A". Ashlyn chose to compare different kinds of beverages to see what kinds are hardest on your teeth, using chalk as our teeth. It actually has been interesting...especially since it is the first time we have ever made coffee in our house! Oh the fun of a 5th grader!

Oh, It's Hannah Montana!

Ok, so after much whining and begging, I caved and bought tickets to the Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus 3D Concert. Most of you know Ashlyn had the chance to see the actual concert back in November. I have to say it was a lot of fun and even found myself wanting to stand up and dance...ok so I even sang a few of the songs. Yes, sadly enough I do know them. But my favorite part really was when the Jonas Brothers performed. They are cute! Where were all these boys when we were kids? Oh ya, we had Shawn Cassidy and John Taylor. Anways, it was a lot of fun and well worth the leg and arm I gave up to purchase the ticket! As for Dave? He passed on the fun.
