Longer than I was planning..

Ever have one of those moments where you have been so looking forward to it because you just know it's going to be so great and what could go wrong?? Well, I had that moment.

I purchased tickets, pretty early in advance, to take Aubrey to see Veggie Tales Live! She really loves the dvd's I have, so I knew this would be a hit. Sarah and Collin joined in as well.
So the day arrives, this past Friday, and it could not have been a more annoying day. Stuck in an hour and half traffic on my way home, which pretty much put me in a rush the rest of the day. And, I pretty much lived in the car... and I hate driving. Going all around town getting Collin and Aubrey from school, get them home to change their clothes, fits are rampant, leave.. starts raining.. headache. Why does my Veggie Tales day have to be going sooo badly??? So.. we meet up with Sarah, tell her she is driving. We get to Prestonwood church, and its already pretty packed. Get some seats. Ok, this is going to be good. :) Except for the fact that apparently Prestonwood hid their one and only changing table and I never found it! Seriously?! Show starts, and for the first good bit Aubrey just sits in my lap and watches. No expressions, but, whatev. Collin is enjoying it, so it all finally seems worth it! That's when Sarah tells me its TWO hours long! From 7-9pm.. with a bunch of little kids.. uh, right. After intermission the whole place kinda went downhill. Kids are running up and down the aisles. And, just a little side note, I personally was a little bummed that the only props they had were like 5 of the characters in their costumes. They had the vidoes to the songs they sang playing on jumbo screens. Sarah said "So, this is basically the dvd you have?" Lesson learned. Oh.. and my vision of getting all these really cute pics of Collin and Aubrey.. psh. You'll see. I won't say the entire show was a waste, because when they did sing the whole place joined in and it was pretty cool! But... don't think I'll go again :) Ok, here's the evidence of the night:
waiting for the show to start. Pretty sure they "colored" every tithe envelope!
Veggie Tales!Aubrey enthralled.I thought she was going to fall asleep.. she just was so relaxed. haha. post intermission.this one of Collin cracks me up! He's "dancing". And, he'll so appreciate this when he's older :)
tried to get a pic of the two. I told Collin just sit there and smile the whole time, in case Aubrey decided to cooperate too. I love how he's smiling.. yet, trying to look to see if she is. I told him to tickle her.Why even bother? :)
The End. Ok, ok... moving on.
:)

Just a little randomness now:
Sunday morning before church. I just love this dress that was my little cousins, I have a great photoshoot idea with this dress :)She wore those shoes allll day. She kept putting them on herself too! Saturday, we got to hang out with Jake! Pretty sure he wasn't as excited..
I love his eyes, "help!" She just looked so darn cute :)Sleeping pics! Bet you thought those were over! Ha!Crazy girl.Don't know if anyone noticed that Aubrey's eyes have been a little less visible lately, well.. girlfriend got her first hair cut! Ok, a bang trim. And, there wasn't even enough cut for me to save.. so.. I guess I won't really count this as her first :)
Waiting for Aunt Emmy. So nice to have our own personal hair stylist!! Snippin away!Can't tell much of a difference in this pic, but, there is! Thanks Emmy! :)

Completely unrelated, is this weather perfect or what?! Man.. welcome fall!!
Get outside and enjoy! :)
